In your steam decks /etc/sshd_config file, add or un-comment the following options line (not the one under match user):Īnd you should be able to launch apps using X11 forwarding. IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_rsk_b_personal IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_rsk_a_personal I haven't tested this with the deck, but it should be the same as any other linux system and I've done it on those.Ĭreate a host entry in your SSH as follows, editing to your requirements: Quoting: jordicomaAnd now with ssh we can connect with a terminal remotely to the deck.Īnd probably (I don't know how to configure) have remote X11. But I prefer it over using FileZilla for such simple tasks. It does take a little preparation though. With this you'll be able to just browse / copy / paste etc to the steam deck directly from dolphin. If you're looking for a 'more integrated' feel: Once they have it out properly, I'll take a look. I've spoken to them before, and they claimed it couldn't just be a Flatpak by itself due to various integration issues. > would be happier to cover KDE Connect if they put up a proper Flatpak app, one that is not in their testing repo that isn't ready for production. It shouldn't be that hard for the app to allow explicit use of a particular key per connection.īut since it hasn't been fixed, there must be something else going on.Quoting: Liam Dawe Quoting: BrokattI find KDE Connect to work well enough onm Steam Deck these days.You just need to add the source in Discover via Settings > Add Source.

Someone suggested Mozilla's plugin, but it doesn't appear to deal with passwordless keys. Hate to use a different app (Quack), FZ has been very good. Using SSH_AUTH_SOCK doesn't help because that's just designed for storing passwords, so FZ still cycles through all the keys until it finds the one it likes (so that method doesn't really do anything for passwordless private keys), causing the server to again bomb out from multiple tries.

Sure, with root access to all the servers I touch, I could just reconfigure SSHD to allow more tries, but that's not practical. Problem seems to be the remote server bombing out from FZ trying the keys one at a time until it finds the one that works. Now on 3.4.0, I actually can log into multiple clients, but am limited to a half-dozen or so.
