Changing Laptop display to HDMI Display (WARNING not a Linux guy)
I'm using Bazzite SteamOS for an "HTPC" using an Acer Predator Laptop I had lying around. I previously had the issue where i couldn't use the HDMI port but fixed that with this guide:
https://docs.bazzite.gg/Handheld_and_HTPC_edition/quirks/
Now I'm running into another issue, I would like the option to switch between my Laptop display and HDMI display based on if the HDMI port is in use.
So far I have thought of 3 options:
1. Create a script on startup that tries to see if it is connected
-I failed miserably
2. Write an if statement within '10-gamescope-session.conf'
-IDK if thats how it works
3. manually edit '10-gamescope-session.conf' every time I want to switch
4. Try Step 1 again
