External Mouse in Desktop mode on Steamdeck Freezing/sticking
Logitec Wireless mouse/keyboard combo.
Steamdeck with Steamdock.
Desktop Mode

The mouse keeps freezing and sometimes won't move for minutes at a time. Trying to play a simple game like Aisleriot Solitare becomes a frustrating and often maddening experience just trying to pick up a card and place it on another stack. Not to mention the many other programs I use in the desktop mode. Something is EATING all the mouse resources in Desktop Mode. I've even had the keyboard quit working completely for long periods of time. When I 'can' get the System Monitoring program working I look for processes that might be conflicting, but I don't find anything definitive. I've tried 2 different Keyboard mouse combos that work just fine on another computer (ASUS Laptop). Someone needs to fix this in the drivers that run the interface. USB just doesn't seem to be that "Universal", especially when dealing with this issue.

I have been just transfering .mp3 files sum big sum tiny sum many, and i did multiple experiments to see what would work what wouldnt, and im not downloading from the internet I am only MOVING files from 1 usb to another im using a steam deck dock, which has 5 usb port 2 of which are 3.0, so i have both the flash drives in the 3.0 ports, i am trying to move 356 files a total of 2.2gb, and it literally is only transfering .5mb every 20minutes, and it already failed twice to which i hit retry both times, I have looked for a solution on google reddit and this steam community, and nobody can tell me why the transfer rate is so slow, obvisously on steamdeck im using dolohin file manager its up 2 date, I tried moving files on my chromebook forget about it, even when moving just 1 file at a time on my chromebook would make it restart, maybe going to a library is the answer and moving it with their computers but i wish there was a simple way to just do it on my steam deck without any stalling or failures or having it take a week to work. answers please

ps. i have like 0 steam friends addd me

1)the Bluetooth just freezes every now and again.
2)the Signal fails too as the HDMI handshake fails at start up
3)Oh, and the audio opts out every now and again, as there is no arc return channel for the HDMI to carry either.

The deck is just a beta..
does not matter if your in the stable channel, or the beta channel..
the whole thing has zero quality testing

@BLEXYMAN

Use a USB Hub, or a USB C Memory Stick..

It is the only real consistent way to transfer data back and forth.

Have fun
peace

It's not only that but the copying, or more over the selecting all makes the folder freeze for like a minute than to copy takes another min then to paste to where I'm copying take over 20 minutes - an hour sometimes, I figured out that exfat format transfers faster then Fat32 and NFTS transfers even faster but my player in my vehicle only reads fat32 so I'm stuck with the slow copying of files until they program something to make the process faster
