    Sorry I somehow failed to include the word "sharing". Last time I tried setting up a steam family it said we had to live at the same address.

    It was updated fairly recently to include remote shares. There's nothing to set up.

      Anything is possible with Linux if you pfaff around long enough. But I think you'll need a controller with USB receiver, you can't do it directly with Bluetooth.

      Consoles have a whole other processor that looks for inputs like that while the main processor remains off. Those don't make much sense for PCs.

      You're right. I tried for a little while and got tired of it. The controller I have is connected via a 2.4ghz dongle, so it's basically a USB. My PC sees it, but I just can't add it to the wake list for some reason. It kept failing. It's not really a big deal. When I want to play game I come walking to the basement, so I'm already on my feet. I can just walk to the PC and wake it up. Lol. We also have a mouse and keyboard by the couch anyway.

        A guide on the installation? Just a normal distro install if you've ever installed one. I chose the HTPC iso to make sure I'm getting the full desktop power alongside the gaming mode and installed. I have several drives and it was so cool to realize that Bazzite set them to mount automatically at boot (one of them is even NTFS), all I did is tick them in the installer alongside the one I installed the system on and the distro like understood that I needed them mounted at boot automatically.

        Here their guide in case you need it 🙂

          After faffing around with Steam Link to no avail again last night, I'm seriously considering something like that.

                Sunshine is a program you run on your gaming PC. Then you can pair it with Moonlight on any number of devices like another PC, iOS, Android, etc.

                In my experience it's much better than Steam's built-in streaming.

                  See the other comment about what Sunshine and Moonlight are, but I wanted to toss in I use that, as well as a stand alone instance of Steam on my living room PC. My living room PC is noticeably weaker than my main PC, so for some games I stream them via Sunshine/Moonlight, but for a lot of indie titles I just run them right in the living room PC.

                      Thanks. I'll give that a spin.
