Steam Deck

The Steam Deck is Valve's first handheld gaming console. It runs Steam OS, a variant of Arch Linux. I'm using mine for a lot of emulation via EmuDeck.

Disabling read-only root filesystem

This is necessary to modify files outside of /home.

sudo steamos-readonly disable

Fixing packaging signing keys

After allowing read-write access to the root filesystem you'll need to import the Arch Linux signing keys:

sudo pacman-key --init
sudo pacman-key --populate archlinux
sudo pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring

Installing missing headers

It seems glibc is installed by default, but its headers are missing from /usr/include:

sudo pacman -Syu glibc
