Atbh yeah, that's what i think would be likely to happen
Aswapping between KDE and Gnome can get messy
KLikely to happen but also I won't be surprised if they stay on it
Üjust install both and make the choice during the login screen :clueless:
Ghow do i do that?
L
Galso i have no keyboard and mouse
Gi'm on a handheld
Üi installed bazzite yesterday
...
literally any1 else in this server will be able to help you more than me right now

Atbh this is sounding more and more like you should not do this 
Gi install maybe like 5 days ago?
Abasically your two choices are:
- rebase + fix all the config issues that'll pop up (not recommended)
- reinstall, which will install a clean copy of bazzite-gnome, but you'll lose your current bazzite install (recommended)
but the reinstall is a bad idea if you don't have a keyboard and mouse.
so, uhh. I'd say don't do anything for now.

Gwell i do have a keyboard and mousse but i only like using it when i have to
Ghow do i do that
LDo handheld images even have a login screen?
Ayes, if you lock the device while in desktop mode + enable the KDE lockscreen
Gi don't have one
Athat being said, it's not really for logging into a new session, it's meant for to resume
LBut that’s post DE init and will not work for switching between KDE and gnome…?
Ayeah, it wouldn't work
Üthe lock screen isnt a login screen
the difference is that a login screen will start your desktop
when you see it the desktop isnt running yet
a lockscreen is from the running desktop

Athis suggestion isn't possible on a handheld bazzite image

Ayep, thinking about it, makes sense. I should've thought that through a bit more
Üor atleast not possible without taking a hammer to it , metaphorically speaking
LRandom thought here, but will Plymouth work for this?
VFor what exactly?
VI don't think you could use it for DE switching, if that's what you mean.
LI’m pretty sure there was something to that effect on an old Arch install of mine
LHmmmmm nvm it was just GDM
VYou can use SDDM/GDM (Well, not 100% about GDM) on the deck images
VBut it means no more autoboot into game mode
VAlso not sure if it messes with switching to desktop
KYes, but it's powered by steam
KPin lock
LOh forgot that one
Pneofetch is abandoned, fastfetch is the newer one
VWe symlink neofetch to fastfetch.
Pouuuh awesome
Aafter the latest update return to gaming mode just logouts and logins. And I have to enter my password after every restart. Which is only way to switch gaming mode...
ASteamdeck gnome
Kdefinitely not able to reproduce here. Can you take a pic of the login screen you're seeing?
Athere is no login screen after I press return to gaming mode steam closes than it waits a while there were logout count down before the update it is gone too. Than it just freezes to black screen and back to desktop mode again
AI was having this sometimes before the update not all the time now it stuck.
KThat would mean steam is crashing
Kquestion is why
Kyou can try renaming your ~/.local/share/Steam folder to reset it
Ksee if that clears it up
Awould it fix my login to steam issues too. I need to login every time I restart
