[Project] Pizzarchy: Omarchy on your Steam Deck

I installed Omarchy on my main PC and really liked it. So much so that I wanted to have it on my Steam Deck as well. Pizzarchy is Omarchy Quattro for your (actual, physical) Steam Deck. Credit goes to the Omarchy team! This is essentially a Quattro ISO slightly modified to be more deck friendly and comes with a few off-the-shelf modifications (e.g., on-screen keyboard).

Hot and ready in about twenty minutes! Easy as Pizza(rchy) pie.

One bootable USB installs it on your Steam Deck with no keyboard/mouse required. Feels exactly like SteamOS except the desktop is Omarchy Quattro with a Steam-like on-screen keyboard (bring it up using STEAM + X). Installation is driven entirely by the Deck's buttons and trackpads. What I found in this project is that Omarchy's keyboard-friendly controls are Steam Deck friendly as well (e.g., STEAM button to bring up apps menu, D-pad/A to select). Give it a try and happy to receive any feedback!

Installation requires Ventoy on a USB stick. Built off of today's stable Quattro release.

Known issues
- Ventoy boot is rotated 90 deg (no fix for Steam Deck)
- First boot into gaming mode shows a black screen for ~20 secs
