I am sorry but what is Wayland and how to switch to x11
KIt's your compositor essentially. If on a desktop image you can switch from the login screen
Kif a deck image,
ujust _toggle_wayland
ZBoy oh boy, can you teach me, I'm still a Linux newbie, there is a LOT to learn is what I am seeing
ZAct like I am 10
Kgear icon on login screen, will give you a menu to pick from X11 or Wayland
Kor run that comamnd and reboot
Kthat's it, steam streaming will start to work
ZOkay so I switch to desktop mode, then log out, then on my account there should be a gear icon.
Kif you have to log out, you're likely on a deck image
Kso just run the command I sent you instead
ZThere is not
ZOkay
Knot talking about steam in any part of this
Kbesides it working at the end
Ktalking about your user account in linux
ZOhhh
ZOkay, so to clear up, I am running Bazzite deck edition for legion go dual boot setup, and followed aru's guide
Kyeah , just run that one command then
ZOkay so you're saying you sent me a message, I am guessing it's in the help thread that I for some reason can't get inside
ZCan you dm
Kit's here in this chat, just above your image
Ka ujust command
ZAight
ZAlright, I did that using the terminal, amazingly everything suddenly scaled properly in desktop mode now, and the OS feels amazingly much more responsive but I have a microscopic taskbar which is unaffected by my scaling options and steam link now gives me a black screen on the tv and is essentially only streaming the sound, it is a step forward though since it was earlier just rebooting my whole device
ZI am not sure if I wrote my Sudo password correctly but I believe that I did since Bazzite has switched to X11
Ax11 on desktop mode can't be scaled via display settings
Awhich is why i stuck to wayland on desktop
Adesktop mode wayland has the autorotate screen issue though
ZBtw, thank you guys so much, especially aru and Kyle for being extremely helpful.
It can apparently but only in every 6,25% upwards.

ZThe only thing that doesn't scale as long as you do the 6,25% upwards is the taskbar but as soon as you restart desktop mode then you'll see your scaling has taken affevt
ZAffect*
ZLooks a bit corny but now applications like steam is actually properly scaling in desktop mode without the weird tiny UI
ZI am trying to get steam link working tho
KI'm not sure what's up in your case, it should just work on X11
KI suppose Sunshine is always a better option for you if you can't get it working
KSteam link can be buggy even in the best circumstances
KNote that running that same toggle command will get you back on Wayland for scaling
KAnd sunshine supports it
E“Works on my machine” jk uwu
EI love bazzussy
EI’m gonna game tonight on my tv
EAnd be happy with bazzussy
ZI can try the inbuilt android tv instead of Nvidia shieldTV pro, if it doesn't work either then I will try this sunshine thing.
When using Wayland I had these strange scaling glitches in desktop mode, most stuff was properly scaled, but every now and then there was some things that remained with tiny UI.
After trying X11, everything scales properly, even applications as long as you scale by multiplying 6,25% or just spam the upwards arrow then restart desktop mode.
The only thing that didn't scale was my taskbar for some strange reason.

Twe have an "installing & managing applications" guide that goes over containers. it still might need some work. Would def try to make a container and play around with it though. BoxBuddy is pre-installed for a GUI
Sto get things like steam tos cale properly for me I used this option
ZSo I think I might be staying with X11 instead of Wayland, it will probably depend on how many bugs I will encounter but do anyone here have any solutions to the tiny taskbar in X11
Ayou're basically the trailblazer here for the LGO, I don't know anyone using X11 desktop on the LGO
ZOof
ZSooo first thing I did was play with scaling, didn't think it work until I saw a microscopic message that said it will only work every 6,25% and will only take affect after a restart.
So I got scaling working and it is flawless other than a tiny taskbar.
Then I learned that suspend-resume is a bit more unstable on X11 than on Wayland but it does work about 70% of the time compared to Wayland's 80% of the time.
Will report any more bugs I encounter, steam link worked after I changed video codec.
