Specifically, SteamOS for the Steam Frame. I have so many questions. The Frame runs "SteamOS". Only SteamOS is based on Arch/x86, and the Frame runs ARM/Qualcomm, so surely this is a sort of "SteamOS for ARM"? I understand FEX (ish), are they just running the entire OS through FEX? Arch doesn't seem to have an ARM version I can find so did Valve do the work of porting Arch to ARM? And if so, where is the source code?
