Steam Deck
The Steam Deck is a hand-held gaming device that at its core is essentially the same hardware seen in a laptop or tablet, but with an included built-in gamepad rather than keyboard.

Quirks
The Steam Deck may lock up during boot with the last message on the console displaying “atkbd0: [GIANT-LOCKED]”. To get beyond this point, edit the /boot/device.hints file and comment out every line. This file is for supporting legacy hardware (ex: ISA bus and floppy disks) which isn't available on the Steam Deck so has no practical use on this device.
