Hello, I’m not a total Linux noob, but I’m not sure what my plan is for windows 10s shutter, and I’m not going to 11. I have a PC exclusively for games with an nvidia gpu.
My dream setup works something like a headless gaming pc: I keep my tower on my desk with some monitors and mkb, then run Ethernet all over, and I can stream the tower to: my deck, my phone, a steam link, thin client etc. Then I could get a steam link for my driving sim and send it over there, maybe add in a flight sim later with another steam link. Is this possible?
Hurdles:
- can I still run halo/microsoft games easily? Rocket league? I don’t want to reconfigure every game after every patch.
- What distro would be best?
- Can it switch to the right resolution for what I’m streaming to? I have 16:9, 21:9, steam deck and my phone to contend with. When I tried moonlight it always swapped to the plugged in monitor resolution instead.
- Can it output 4K120hz over the Ethernet?
- Good option for steam link devices?
- Can I stream outside the home with Tailscale
I’m not sure they have Logitech wheel drivers built in yet. Or fanatec or whatever. Don’t the thin clients just act as usb to Ethernet adapters then I just need the drivers on the main pc?
