Steam Deck Beta Client Update: May 3rd

We have just shipped an updated Steam Deck Client to the Preview/Beta channel.

General
  • Fixed download notification for newly downloaded DLC not showing the correct name.

Desktop Mode
  • Fixed desktop notifications no longer displaying after editing notes for a game

Linux
  • Fixed problems downloading Proton 9.

Steam Input
  • Fix Regression for "Custom Deadzones" not applying correctly.
  • UI: Joystick Mouse Deadzone controls now use the common Deadzone Editor.
  • Added "Invert Command Binding" for FlickStick's Outer Ring Command.
  • Added an option to allow the FlickStick to trigger a Flick Turn if the stick is thrown when the action set/action layer/mode shift is activated.
  • Reset Camera to Horizon/Turn Camera to Face Direction/ Turn Camera 360: these actions will still work even if Flick Stick or Gyro to Mouse are removed from your settings. Dots per 360 must first be calibrated using those two modes, however.

Note: this beta was re-released to fix a regression in opening the onscreen keyboard in Desktop Mode.
