Highlights of the SteamOS 2.64 Beta release include an updated Nvidia video driver, which is now at version 355.00.28, the same one that Nvidia released for Linux on February 23, 2016, implementing support for the new Vulkan 3D API. Additionally, the BlueZ Bluetooth packages have been updated to improve the support for the Sony DualShock 3 PlayStation controllers, and the Linux kernel received support for a third-party PowerA XboxOne Mini wired controller.
