    Issue tracking for the Steam for Linux beta client

  • It took my a bunch of googling to find this, and it wasn't very obvious. There is a workaround solution as mentioned in the comments of the Github issue for this bug which states that the Pipewire flag when launching steam will correct this: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/6148

  • xdg-desktop-portal-wlr

    xdg-desktop-portal backend for wlroots

  • I don't know which of the xdg-desktop-portal backends you would need for gamescope, but xdg-desktop-portal-wlr has a config file which it reads where you can set the preferred output and set the chooser_type to none. That makes it skip the screen selector for me.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • gamescope

    Discontinued SteamOS session compositing window manager [Moved to: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope] (by Plagman)

  • I think gamescope uses its own implementation, but thanks for the link I'll look into it.
