systemctl --user goes through user_systemctl, which only changes unit files
without a session; the theme lets Plasma build Vapor's layout at the first
login when the layout is still /etc/skel's; a one-time first-login autostart
sets up single user's launcher and opens the app.
The power-off fix becomes an opt-out sub-option of Steam Machine
support. The kernel pin is no longer offered: an existing pin (and HDMI
refresh boost, which needs it) is unticked so a normal run removes it.
Components record a feature version on each successful run; installs
with an older version are ticked and updated, and new default
sub-options are ticked where their parent is on.
Kernels >= 7.2 keep the firmware's S4/S5 wake bit on GPIO pin 18, so the
Steam Machine starts again right after powering off. Steam Machine
support now builds a DKMS module (patches/steamify-fremont-poweroff.c)
that clears it before power-off, for every kernel. The kernel pin is no
longer ticked by default. Module sources and patches move to patches/,
embedded by the single-file build.
Rates are saved per display (EDID ID) and loaded by the hotplug script
for whichever display is connected. The item is on only while the
connected display is boosted; unticking removes just that one. The app
lists the saved displays and removes any of them (hdmi-forget).
HDMI-CEC runs before Steam Machine support, which installs steamos-manager,
so its configure-cecd unit couldn't be enabled. Link them from Steam Machine
support too.
With the kernel pin ticked, install 7.1.6-1 before the LED driver, so DKMS
builds it once. steamos-manager checks for cecd only at its start: order it
after cecd.
Sub-option of Steam Machine support, ticked along with it: newer CachyOS
kernels make the Steam Machine reboot instead of shutting down. Packages
are kept in /var/cache/steamify/kernel and reinstalled from there; else
pacman's cache, the CachyOS archive or mirror, or PINNED_KERNEL_URL.
The DKMS override was written to /etc/dkms before dkms was installed, when that folder doesn't exist yet: the write failed silently and other kernels (e.g. LTS) built against the running one and failed. Create the folder first and stop on a failed write. VERSION 0.9.1.
- setup-gamescope-boot.sh renamed to steamify.sh; all references updated.
- Releases publish the bundle as steamify.sh and, for older install commands, setup-gamescope-boot.sh.
- The Steamify shortcut runs steamify.sh.
- The leds-valve Makefile builds against uname -r, so every other kernel
(e.g. linux-cachyos-lts) failed: add /etc/dkms/leds-valve-dkms.conf with
MAKE[0]="make KVERSION=${kernelver}". DKMS now builds it for every
installed kernel and rebuilds it on kernel updates.
- ensure-kernel-headers.service installs missing -headers for newly added
kernels at boot, which makes DKMS build the driver for them.
- Console-like power handling on mains power: power button sleeps, no
automatic suspend (journaled powerdevilrc).
- Menu: overview per installed kernel (headers, Steam controller driver,
LED driver built, running kernel) and whether the LEDs are loaded.
- Menu: the selected row's highlight no longer stops after the green x.
- Theme label in the menu: "Vapor look (cachyos-vapor)".
- Menu detects what is on and applies only the changes: SteamOS
conversion, SteamOS theme, Steam Deck/Machine icons, single user mode,
and Steam Machine support (only on Fremont hardware)
- Everything is reversible: KDE settings go through an undo journal
(lib/state.sh), system files are restored from their backups
- Steam Machine support: LED driver, udev rule giving the user the LED
files, steamos-manager for Steam's hardware settings; OpenRGB dropped
- Edit Plasma files only while plasmashell is stopped so it can't
overwrite them
- README and AGENTS.md describe the menu, the component model and the
test environment
