Is it possible to change the nested desktop resolution to the one chosen by SteamOS?

you can change it in /etc/default

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:28 PM

I know I used a bit of an edit on the script to get that working

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:29 PM

Ohh

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:30 PM

Curiously, I checked the file of the script and it seemed to have these variables loaded but also got these variables in the file as well

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:31 PM

Kyle Gospo•12/15/23, 8:31 PM

if you mean the nested-desktop executable

Kyle Gospo•12/15/23, 8:31 PM

it's because they serve as a default

Kyle Gospo•12/15/23, 8:31 PM

for if the file in /etc/default doesn't exist

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:31 PM

So the

is a way in Bash to say "Use this if not set"?

Kyle Gospo•12/15/23, 8:31 PM

right

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:32 PM

Oh sweet

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:32 PM

I can use that for a script of my own :D

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:33 PM

So, can I make that variable a script using

${}

${}

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:36 PM

Oh wait, that should be

$()

$()

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:37 PM

STEAMOS_NESTED_DESKTOP_WIDTH=$(xdpyinfo -display :0 | awk '/dimensions/{print $2}' | cut -d 'x' -f1)
STEAMOS_NESTED_DESKTOP_HEIGHT=$(xdpyinfo -display :0 | awk '/dimensions/{print $2}' | cut -d 'x' -f2)

STEAMOS_NESTED_DESKTOP_WIDTH=$(xdpyinfo -display :0 | awk '/dimensions/{print $2}' | cut -d 'x' -f1)
STEAMOS_NESTED_DESKTOP_HEIGHT=$(xdpyinfo -display :0 | awk '/dimensions/{print $2}' | cut -d 'x' -f2)

Hopefully this will work

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:38 PM

It did not :(

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:43 PM

$ echo ${STEAMOS_NESTED_DESKTOP_WIDTH}
1920

$ echo ${STEAMOS_NESTED_DESKTOP_WIDTH}
1920

It should work

Installed bazzite-deck:testing on OLED after putting in 2TB SSD. Issues encountered:

1) GRUB isn't hidden by default. Displays for 5 seconds, then picks first option if no action from user. Displays 4(??) options plus UEFI entry (shouldn't GRUB be hidden by default?).
2) By default, scaling factor was set to 175% in desktop mode (carried over from bazzite-deck:latest?).
3) SD card (from LCD with Bazzite) was put into OLED while turned off. OLED hasn't recognized it right after booting; attempts at format resulted in errors. Ejecting card and putting it in again (live) helped, it has been properly recognized this time with all data on it.

This is correct behavior, it's hidden by Yafti

Kyle Gospo•12/15/23, 8:46 PM

gotta finish that process

Raltay•12/15/23, 8:46 PM

Oh OK , so it's WIP, never mind then, thank you

Kyle Gospo•12/15/23, 8:47 PM

by default GRUB is shown, it's optionally hidden by yafti (bazzite portal)

Kyle Gospo•12/15/23, 8:47 PM

you can also hide it with

ujust

ujust

Raltay•12/15/23, 8:48 PM

I get it now, yes I haven't run Bazzite portal yet to install stuff, that explains it

Raltay•12/15/23, 8:50 PM

One thing that scared me a bit was that my touchscreen wasn't working at all at first, but putting OLED in storage mode fixed it.

Raltay•12/15/23, 8:51 PM

(scared because I replaced my SSD right before installation, feared that I broke something)

Raltay•12/15/23, 8:53 PM

Thanks for help once again!

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:57 PM

Oh, is the variable of the resolution not being re-loaded after editing the file in

/etc/default

/etc/default

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:58 PM

Perhaps that's why it didn't work

ZelafOP•12/15/23, 8:58 PM

I tried changing it to 1920x1080 now but it's still on 1280x800

Jilong•12/15/23, 9:02 PM

This is an extremely minor issue, but on bazzite-deck-gnome:testing, the screen timeout on inactivity does not seem to ever get triggered.

Valerie•12/15/23, 9:04 PM

I have a similar issue on latest with KDE

Valerie•12/15/23, 9:04 PM

Screen fades to black, never sleeps, if you push a button it does the fade animation again.

Shrimplover100•12/15/23, 10:42 PM

@chaiqi I tried the Flatpak version of Firefox and the plasma integration seemed to give me the same error of not working with the system.

ChaiQi•12/15/23, 10:42 PM

Huh

Shrimplover100•12/15/23, 10:43 PM

It might be a problem with Flatpak in general?

ChaiQi•12/15/23, 10:57 PM

Yeah

ChaiQi•12/15/23, 10:57 PM

Nice to have it narrowed down somewhat, at least...

CharlieBros•12/15/23, 11:25 PM

Hello fellas, first of all, I read thru all the 2.0 documentation of Bazzite and also the last two Buzzes, amazing work, congratulations to everybody who's helping making this OS, is incredibly how far has it advanced in just 3-4 months

Now, I would like to know the status in how is it working in the Legion Go, as I'm thinking about buying it either in february or march, however if I have the opportunity, I'll grab it early January.

CharlieBros•12/15/23, 11:26 PM

My plan is to get the 512 GB base model and just buy a big 1 TB SD card, I'll like to dual boot as some games (namely Fall Guys and some other multiplayer ones) only work in Windows, but that would basically be it, I saw some reports that QAM was working but other instances where is not

Keith( Beat Quest Games)•12/15/23, 11:37 PM

My bluetooth is no longer working after the ast update, any idea

Kyle Gospo•12/15/23, 11:37 PM

Kyle Gospo•12/15/23, 11:38 PM

and what hardware

Kyle Gospo•12/15/23, 11:39 PM

and what BT device isn't working?

Keith( Beat Quest Games)•12/15/23, 11:39 PM

Bluetooth just generally stopped working.

Kyle Gospo•12/15/23, 11:40 PM

can you get a log of anything?

Keith( Beat Quest Games)•12/15/23, 11:40 PM

Which is weird, it was fine last night

STEAMOS_NESTED_DESKTOP_WIDTH=$(xdpyinfo -display :0 | awk '/dimensions/{print $2}' | cut -d 'x' -f1) STEAMOS_NESTED_DESKTOP_HEIGHT=$(xdpyinfo -display :0 | awk '/dimensions/{print $2}' | cut -d 'x' -f2)

Is it possible to change the nested desktop resolution to the one chosen by SteamOS?
