## Live-session quirks
- Copy/paste doesn't reach QEMU over Moonlight: type commands with
`python3 scripts/qmptype.py <vm dir>/qmp.sock "<command>"` (US layout, adds
Enter; the VM window's terminal must have focus). QMP `screendump` gives "no
surface" with virgl: screenshot the Steam Machine's desktop instead
(`spectacle -b -n -f -o /tmp/host.png` in its session).
- CachyOS Hello refuses to start the installer on a self-built ISO ("testing
ISO"): run `calamares-online.sh` in Konsole.
- `cachyos-calamares-next 3.4.2-13` needs `libboost_*.so.1.91.0` while the
repos ship Boost 1.92: steamify-prepare.sh puts 1.91's libraries on the ISO
(from archive.archlinux.org) until CachyOS rebuilds it.
