that's the name yes, but from what I've found so far cannot be used on my shield model, mdarcy

update: so the problem is that linux cannot even boot on it yet

https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Nvidia_Shield_TV_Pro_2019_(nvidia-mdarcy)

if that's fixed, it will probably need graphics drivers to be found at least, wireless drivers, and whatever for the remote but possibly that would already work at least partially.

you mean nvidia shield? can it run any kind of alternative OS though? maybe custom android roms, but rather I mean even just a basic linux distro, or PostmarketOS.
