No drift or issues with these bad boysThe left joystick on on Deck has been grinding against the outer black shell when pressed up and to the right, seems to be a common problem.
Had mine since June so its looking pretty bad now and doesn't feel smooth to play with, got an RMA go hopefully I get a fresh one without this issue

If you install them on your PC a lot of the GOG games have no DRM so you can just copy across to the deck and add the executables to Steam and not rely on any launchers.
You legend! Got gog installled and ran Witcher (1) install and got it booted up and running. Now I need to figure out how the heck to get it to use the pad!I've started making my own notes for troublesome games on the Deck!
Witcher 3 was one of them (or do you really mean Witcher 1?) and I had no luck via Heroic either. I actually wanted to install via GOG anyway to have full cloud save functionality across my main PC and the Deck, so these are for installing GOG and running Witcher 3 via that.....
1. Watch this video. Is for Cyberpunk but is exactly same principles to follow
Steam Deck: Install and Configure GOG Galaxy + Cyberpunk 2077 (No Lutris or Bottles)
A NEW UPDATE HAS CAUSED THE NON-STEAM GAMES "TARGET" and "START IN" TO FAIL TO ADD QUOTES AROUND THEM. ADD A DOUBLE QUOTE TO THE START AND END OF EACH LINE ...
HOWEVER, the Witcher 3 has some 'dependencies' that need installing and it falls over right at the end of the install (about 97%) and gives a message "Installation failed (E2)"
THE FIX
--------
See here: https://support.gog.com/hc/en-us/ar...-E2-Failed-to-finalize-the-update?product=gog
TEXT COPIED
"GOG GALAXY failed to install the game's dependencies at the end of the installation.
Firstly, please shutdown GOG GALAXY (cogwheel icon in the top left →Exit) and open the app's installation folder (by default in C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG GALAXY):
Please search for a folder called "Dependencies-Temp", rename it to "Dependencies", and if you will be asked - merge it with the original "Dependencies".
Launch GOG GALAXY again and check if the same problem persists"
NOTE: C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG GALAXY) will be HERE, as this is where I installed GOG Galaxy as per the video listed at the top: /home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/4107024146/pfx/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/GOG Galaxy/
DOING THE ABOVE FIX WORKED!.....
....Alternatively, you could also try installing the affected game with the offline installer and import it afterwards to GOG GALAXY:
- open your internet browser and access the GOG library (https://www.gog.com/account)
- select the game
- click below DOWNLOAD OFFLINE BACKUP GAME INSTALLERS
- download all necessary setup files
- open your download folder and run the game's setup
- after completion, wait a moment until the game is imported to your INSTALLED view in GOG GALAXY"
Are you using a Windows install, or have you built the Linux app from source?

Yeah I get that, I can't be arsed with the faff of it to be honest.But I like SteamOS
Not done it personally but found this online:

I had the same issue. Cleaned the stick stem and socket rim with some Isopropyl alcohol, then added a tiny bit of silicone grease and now it's lovely and smooth again.The left joystick on on Deck has been grinding against the outer black shell when pressed up and to the right, seems to be a common problem.
