[HELP] ASUS TUF F15, 2-Profile SDDM setup. KDE Bazzite

Hi, people! long story short, I was longing for a steam machine, but the price isn't worth it, so I wanted to do my own DIY console. Found a SH ASUS TUF F15, and I want to install bazzite on it. Being a new linux user and bazzite user, I surprisingly managed to install bazzite KDE, but I am not confident it's what I needed. I want to have this PC automatically boot in Steam Big Picture mode (the one with one user only, and only steam big picture), but whenever I need to access deeper files, or work on something else or install games, I want to press a key, intrerup the boot in SDDM, and select the Plasma KDM profile, so I can have access to the desktop.

I got the auto-boot into steam big picture mode already, posponed the boot intreruption to switch profile for now, because steam big picture seems to work in low frames whenever It starts up from the automatic profile set up, and also, Switch to Desktop is supposed to kill steam, which in place kills gamescope, and when the script notices that, goes back int o SDDM and allows me to switch to plasma.

The script in context

cat > ~/.local/bin/steam-bpm.sh << 'EOF'
#!/bin/bash
export PATH="/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
export INTEL_DEBUG=norbc
export MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=iris
exec > /tmp/steam-bpm.log 2>&1
echo "Launching gamescope..."
gamescope --backend drm -e -f -- \
  env __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 \
  __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus=NVIDIA_only \
  __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia \
  steam -gamepadui
echo "Gamescope exited with code: $?"
EOF
chmod +x ~/.local/bin/steam-bpm.sh

cat > ~/.local/bin/steam-bpm.sh << 'EOF'
#!/bin/bash
export PATH="/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
export INTEL_DEBUG=norbc
export MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=iris
exec > /tmp/steam-bpm.log 2>&1
echo "Launching gamescope..."
gamescope --backend drm -e -f -- \
  env __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 \
  __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus=NVIDIA_only \
  __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia \
  steam -gamepadui
echo "Gamescope exited with code: $?"
EOF
chmod +x ~/.local/bin/steam-bpm.sh

Problem is that I am pressing switch to desktop, the Switching to Desktop overlay appears, but steam is not getting killed (based on logs and based on the fact that I can still go to menu, select the library or some basic stuff, while the overlay is still on). And I am forced to do CTRL, ALT, F2, log in and kill the app manually from terminal.

Solution

In desktop mode, open steam and enable the hw acceleration options.
