Valve déploie une grosse mise à jour mineure pour le système du Steam Deck

Depuis plusieurs jours, le canal béta du système d'exploitation du Steam Deck, SteamOS, cumule les petites mises à jour diverses et variées. Et aujourd'hui est le grand jour puisque le canal stable les accueille via une mise à jour mineure. Mineure pour Valve, importante pour celui qui voudra lire le changelog (en anglais) tant les informations sont nombreuses.

On notera essentiellement des correctifs pour les utilisateurs qui branchent des périphériques d'entrée sur la machine, plus quelques corrections de bugs mineurs.
