Is there a way to pause or suspend games and turn off the PC similar to how the Steam Deck handles it? Or is this functionality exclusive to the Steam Deck?
I’m using Arch btw, but feel free to share solutions for other distros as well.
I came across Nyrna, but it seems to only support X11 and not Wayland, according to the description.
Weren’t there a kill command to pause any app and another to wake it up?
there is, you send the SIGSTP and SIGCONT to any process for it to be suspended or resumed
It doesn’t work for all games. I think Grey Goo was problematic
(I remember doing thid when I had an Nvidia. Someone noted down that Nvidia does have issues. Maybe I should try again with my AMD)
Technically it works, but they are doing something that makes them bug away when resumed. It is not rare that this is related to graphics
Yeah, those. Thanks!
