mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user nano ~/.config/systemd/user/v2ray.service Paste:
v2ray run -config ~/.config/v2ray/config.json Press Ctrl+C to stop after confirming no errors.
systemctl --user enable v2ray systemctl --user start v2ray
mkdir -p ~/.config/v2ray nano ~/.config/v2ray/config.json Paste your V2Ray client config (VMess, VLESS, etc. from your provider). Save ( Ctrl+X , Y , Enter ).
sudo pacman-key --init sudo pacman-key --populate archlinux sudo pacman -S v2ray
The most reliable approach for Steam Deck is command-line V2Ray core with a systemd user service . It runs quietly in the background, works in both Desktop and Game modes, and survives system updates (reinstall only if Pacman packages are wiped). Avoid GUI clients – they add unnecessary overhead on the Deck’s constrained resources.
