+- HDMI refresh boost (`hdmi`, `lib/hdmi-refresh.sh`): a sub-option of
+  `machine` (like `kpin` and `bios`), only on Fremont with the pinned kernel
+  (stays visible while on); unticking `kpin` unticks it. It needs someone at

+  (`WIZARD_HDMI_CONFIRM_SECONDS` for scripted tests). App: its own screen
+  (`hdmi-options`, `hdmi-try`, `hdmi-reset` backend commands, the EDID cached
+  in `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/steamify-hdmi`), then `apply --hdmi
+  <output>=<w>x<h>:<rates>`; without `--hdmi` the backend refuses it. debugfs is root-only
+  (glob it under sudo), and `edid_override` takes exactly `reset` with no
+  newline. Build the EDID from the DDC read, not from sysfs: a live override
+  replaces the kernel's copy. EDIDs are saved per display
+  (`steamify-<id>.bin`, id = EDID bytes 8-17, listed in
+  `/etc/steamify/hdmi-edid.conf`), never on the kernel command line (that
+  applied to any display on the port): `steamify-edid-hotplug` (boot unit +
+  udev drm hotplug rule) loads the connected display's file, else resets. It
+  records what's loaded in `/run/steamify-edid` before its own
+  `trigger_hotplug`, whose event runs it again. `hdmi_status` is on only
+  while the connected display is boosted; disable forgets only that display
+  (`kpin_disable` forgets all). The app manages the list (`hdmi-forget`,
+  `hdmiDisplays` in status). Pre-2.1.0 setups are moved by `hdmi_migrate`.
+- Steam Machine CEC driver (`cec_driver_enable`, `lib/cec.sh`): mainline
+  `cros_ec_cec` lacks Fremont, so HDMI-CEC builds Valve's copy (evlaV
+  `linux-integration`, pinned commit + SHA-256) with DKMS for every kernel.
+  It's patched to register its notifier without a port name when the board
+  has one CEC port: amdgpu registers its HDMI notifier nameless, and the
+  kernel only pairs that with a named lookup ("Port C") when the CEC driver
+  registered first, which never happens since amdgpu loads from the
+  initramfs. Without it `/dev/cec0` exists but stays at `f.f.f.f`.
+- Power-off fix (`poweroff`, `lib/fremont-poweroff.sh`, a default sub-option
+  of `machine`): recent kernels (7.2 and the 6.x/7.0/7.1 updates with the
+  backport) keep the firmware's S4/S5 wake bit on GPIO
+  pin 18, so the Steam Machine boots again right after powering off
+  (Valve's kernel clears it at probe, not for upstream). The DKMS module
+  `steamify-fremont-poweroff` (`patches/steamify-fremont-poweroff.c`) clears
+  it in a power-off-prepare handler, built for each kernel. It made the kernel pin
+  unnecessary: `kpin` is only available while on (`kpin_available`), and
+  `detect_components` unticks it, so a normal run removes an existing pin.
+  `hdmi` (it needed the pin) is retired the same way: `hdmi_status` is on
+  while anything of it is left (saved displays, hotplug unit, EDID files,
+  old kernel parameter), `hdmi_available` only then, it's always unticked,
+  and `hdmi_disable` removes all of it. CachyOS's
+  `linux-cachyos` is clang-built, `-bore` GCC-built: let DKMS pick the
+  compiler, never pass `LLVM=1`. Test shutdown on the real machine for every
+  new major kernel.
+- VRAM booster (`vram`, `lib/vram-booster.sh`, top-level, ticked by
+  default, 2.3.0; only available when `/sys/fs/cgroup/dmem.capacity` lists a
+  VRAM region of at least 2 GB; greyed out with an NVIDIA card,
+  `vram_selectable`, faked with `WIZARD_VRAM_FAKE_NVIDIA=1`): CachyOS's `dmemcg-booster` (system + user service) and
+  `plasma-foreground-booster`, like SteamOS 3.9's VRAM management. The
+  latter only starts with `kcgroupsrc [Foreground Booster] autostart=true`
+  (set with `kset`). Disable removes only the packages it installed
+  (`state_get vram installed_pkgs`).
 - `Relogin=true` means a gamescope that fails to start is relaunched in a
  tight loop; keep that in mind when changing session handling.

+
+- `ef585c0` **docs: Changelog entries per commit for 2.2.0**
+- `32795bd` **feat(ui): Update badge on the progress screen**
+- `3c8ca65` **fix(ui): Never write the sudo password to a file; Update label on the progress screen**
+  - The app gave `sudo` the password through a short-lived file; the helper
+    now reads it from a named pipe the app feeds from memory each time sudo
+    asks. The progress screen showed "undefined" for an update.
+- `11a91ef` **feat: Update badge on components that get a newer version**
+  - The menu (terminal and app) shows "(update)" / an Update badge after
+    the name of a component a normal run will update.
+- `163f790` **feat: Feature versions are Steamify versions; Steam Machine support is 2.2.0**
+  - Each component records the Steamify version of what it set up; when a
+    release changes a component, installs with an older version are ticked
+    and updated by a normal run ("update" in the plan and the app's
+    review). A setup from before counts as 2.1.0, so Steam Machine support
+    (2.2.0) is updated on machines set up with 2.1.0. New default
+    sub-options (like the power-off fix) are ticked where their parent is on.
+- `e121b06` **fix: Remove whatever is left of HDMI refresh boost, pin or no pin**
+  - HDMI refresh boost needed the pinned kernel and is retired (newer
+    kernels do HDMI 2.1 themselves): whatever is left of it (saved
+    displays, also ones not connected, its hotplug script, the old kernel
+    parameter) is unticked and removed by the next run.
+- `19ca966` **docs: Drop the kernel pin and HDMI refresh boost descriptions**
+- `56fb908` **docs: Power-off fix texts cover every affected kernel, not just 7.2**
+- `6df19eb` **feat: Power-off fix as its own sub-option, drop the kernel pin, feature versions**
+  - The power-off fix is a sub-option of Steam Machine support, ticked
+    along with it (opt-out). The kernel pin is no longer offered: an
+    existing pin is shown unticked, so the next run removes it and brings
+    back CachyOS's current kernel.
+- `7694c97` **feat: Power-off fix for the Steam Machine; the kernel pin is optional**
+  - With recent kernels (newer 6.x, 7.0 and 7.1 updates, 7.2 and probably
+    later ones) the Steam Machine started again right after shutting down:
+    they keep the wake bit the firmware sets on GPIO pin 18, which Valve's
+    own kernel clears in a patch that won't reach CachyOS. A small module,
+    built with DKMS for each installed kernel, clears it right before
+    power-off. Tested with CachyOS 7.2.8: stays off, and without the module
+    it rebooted.
+  - Module sources and patches live in `patches/` instead of inside the
+    shell code; the single-file build and the app package include them. The
+    Steam Machine CEC driver change is now
+    `patches/cros-ec-cec-single-port.patch`.
+
+## 2.1.0 - 2026-09-26
+
+- **feat(ui): Manage button for HDMI refresh boost**
+  - The item's switch is a button: Set up… while no display is saved,
+    Manage after that. Manage lists the saved displays (connected or not),
+    removes one with its Remove button, and sets up the connected display
+    when it has no saved rates yet.
+- **4cc87aa feat: HDMI refresh boost per display, with a Saved displays screen**
+- **36d0a9d feat: HDMI refresh boost only for the display it was set up for**
+  - The EDID override was on the kernel command line, so any display on that
+    HDMI port got the first display's timings. Rates are now saved per
+    display and loaded at boot and at every hotplug for the display that's
+    connected (its ID read over DDC); a display without saved rates, or
+    unplugging, puts the port back on the display's own EDID. No initramfs
+    or boot loader change any more. An existing setup is moved over when
+    re-applied (`a`).
+  - The item shows on only while the connected display is boosted, so a new
+    display can be set up by ticking it; unticking removes only that one.
+
+## 2.0.3 - 2026-09-26
+
+- **fix: HDMI-CEC on the Steam Machine**
+  - Mainline's `cros_ec_cec` driver doesn't know the Steam Machine, so there
+    was no `/dev/cec0`. HDMI-CEC now builds Valve's version of the driver
+    with DKMS (`steamify-cros-ec-cec`) for every installed kernel, with a fix
+    so it finds amdgpu's HDMI port even though amdgpu loads first. An
+    existing HDMI-CEC install is ticked in the menu to add it.
+
+## 2.0.2 - 2026-09-26
+
+- **badfd84 docs: Non-affiliation disclaimer in the README**
+  - States that the project isn't affiliated with Valve or CachyOS, and that
+    Steam and SteamOS are Valve's trademarks.
+
+## 2.0.1 - 2026-09-25
+
+- **2b3f1de feat: The Steamify shortcut opens the app**
+  - "Steamify CachyOS" on the desktop and in the launcher starts the newest
+    app (in Konsole the first time, if PySide6 still has to be installed).
+    The terminal menu is "Steamify Terminal" in the launcher. A shortcut from
+    before 2.0.1 is ticked in the menu, so a normal run replaces it.
+  - steamify-app.sh leaves the shortcut's launcher entry alone (it has the
+    same id, `steamify-ui.desktop`, and always starts the newest release).
+
+## 2.0.0 - 2026-09-25
+
+- **feat: Steamify app (v2 UI)**
+  - A graphical app for controller, keyboard and TV remote, driving the same
+    components through `steamify.sh --backend`; the BIOS update with both
+    warnings; built by GitHub and run with curl.
+- **feat(ui): HDMI refresh boost in the app**
+  - "Set up…" opens its own screen: the display, its resolution and the
+    rates on offer (its own mode, calculated tens, the HDMI 2.0 limit). The
+    display's own faster mode is switched to right away; every other rate
+    has a Try button (switch live, wait for the picture, then keep it within
+    15 s or it switches back) and a tick box. Install installs the ticked
+    rates. All rates are loaded when the screen opens, so a try is only a
+    mode switch.
+  - Unticking Steam Machine support or the kernel pin unticks it, as in the
+    menu.
+- **fix(ui): The details panel scrolls instead of overflowing**
+- **fix: Switching back to a rate like 59.97 Hz**
+  - `hdmi_set_mode` compared it as a whole number and printed an error.
+
+## 1.2.0 - 2026-09-25
+
+- **feat: HDMI refresh boost (Steam Machine, pinned kernel)**
+  - The pinned 7.1.6 kernel doesn't read the extra EDID block where monitors
+    list their fast modes, and does no HDMI 2.1, so HDMI displays often stay
+    at 60 Hz. The new menu item reads the display's EDID over DDC,
+    calculates the highest rate that fits HDMI 2.0 at the desktop resolution
+    (rounded down to ten, plus the hundred below as a safe option), tests
+    each step live with a confirmation, and makes the confirmed ones
+    permanent through `drm.edid_firmware` (Limine, sdboot-manage or GRUB).
+- **feat: HDMI refresh boost and Update BIOS under Steam Machine support**
+  - Both are sub-options now, shown only while Steam Machine support is
+    ticked. Unticking it unticks them; unticking the kernel pin unticks the
+    HDMI refresh boost.
+
+## 1.1.4 - 2026-09-25
+
+- **fix: No lock screen in single user mode before a restart**
+  - The screen locker only read the new settings at the next login, so the
+    PC still locked after 5 minutes idle until then. Turning single user
+    mode on or off now tells it to reload them right away.
+
+## 1.1.3 - 2026-09-25
+
+- **fix: HDMI-CEC settings shown in Steam**
+  - CachyOS's gaming mode script sets `STEAM_ENABLE_CEC=0`, which hides
+    Steam's HDMI-CEC settings (and its CEC volume buttons). HDMI-CEC now adds
+    a drop-in for `steam-launcher.service` that overrides it with
+    `STEAM_ENABLE_CEC=1` (`/etc/steamify/steam-cec.env`).
+  - HDMI-CEC set up by 1.1.0-1.1.2 shows as off and ticked, so a normal run
+    (Enter) adds this.
+
+## 1.1.2 - 2026-09-25
+
+- **fix: Steam's HDMI-CEC settings reach cecd on a first run**
+  - HDMI-CEC runs before Steam Machine support, which installs
+    steamos-manager; so steamos-manager's `configure-cecd` unit couldn't be
+    enabled and cecd ran without Steam's settings. Steam Machine support now

-## Kernel pin (Steam Machine)
+## Power-off fix (Steam Machine)

-With CachyOS kernels newer than 7.1.6 a Steam Machine reboots instead of
-shutting down. The **Pin the kernel** sub-option (ticked along with Steam
-Machine support) installs `linux-cachyos` and `linux-cachyos-headers`
-7.1.6-1 and adds them to `IgnorePkg` in `/etc/pacman.conf`, so updates skip
-them. DKMS builds the LED driver for it; restart to boot it.
+With recent kernels a Steam Machine starts again right after powering off:
+the newer 6.x, 7.0 and 7.1 updates and 7.2 (and probably every kernel after
+it). Linux stopped clearing the S4/S5 wake bits at probe
+(`pinctrl-amd: Don't clear S4 wake bits at probe`, in 7.2 and backported to
+stable kernels), and the firmware leaves
+that bit set on GPIO pin 18 (`_SB.PCI0.GPP6`). Valve's own kernel
+(`linux-neptune-72`) clears it at probe on Fremont, in a patch marked not
+for upstream ("until the firmware is fixed"), so CachyOS and mainline won't
+get it.

-The packages (and their signatures, which pacman checks) are kept in
-`/var/cache/steamify/kernel`, so re-applying needs no download. Missing
-files are taken from pacman's cache, else downloaded from this repo's
-`kernel-7.1.6-1` release, then `archive.cachyos.org`, then
-`mirror.cachyos.org` (which only has the current kernel). Every file must
-match the SHA-256 in the script and have a valid CachyOS signature; a bad
-one is deleted, so the next run downloads it again. Set `PINNED_KERNEL_URL`
-to a directory URL with the files to try another source first, or drop them
-into the kernel directory yourself.
+The **Power-off fix** sub-option of Steam Machine support (ticked along with
+it, can be unticked) builds a small module with DKMS for every installed
+kernel, `steamify-fremont-poweroff` (source in
+[`patches/steamify-fremont-poweroff.c`](patches/steamify-fremont-poweroff.c)).
+It only loads on Fremont (DMI board name) and touches one register: right
+before power-off (a `SYS_OFF_MODE_POWER_OFF_PREPARE` handler, after the
+drivers have shut down) it clears that pin's S4/S5 wake bit. On a kernel
+that already clears it, it does nothing. It logs the pin's state at load:
+`dmesg | grep 'GPIO 18'`; `/sys/kernel/debug/gpio` shows the S4/S5 column.
+Tested on a Steam Machine with `linux-cachyos-bore` 7.2.8: it stayed off
+three times in a row, and rebooted right away with the module unloaded.

-Unticking it removes the pin and runs `sudo pacman -Syu`, which brings the
-kernel back to CachyOS's current version; the files stay for next time.
+Where Steam Machine support was set up before 2.2.0, the menu ticks the
+power-off fix as a new default sub-option (see feature versions below), so a
+normal run adds it.
+
+## VRAM booster
+
+SteamOS 3.9 manages the dGPU's VRAM per cgroup: the game in front is
+protected, background apps are evicted first. Without it a game that needs
+most of the VRAM (8 GB on the Steam Machine) can be pushed into system RAM
+by the desktop and other apps, and stutter. The kernel side is the `dmem`
+cgroup controller (7.2); amdgpu and Intel's xe register their VRAM with it,
+NVIDIA's driver doesn't: with an NVIDIA card the option is shown greyed
+out, with why (`WIZARD_VRAM_FAKE_NVIDIA=1` fakes that for tests). Otherwise
+the **VRAM booster** option is only shown when
+`/sys/fs/cgroup/dmem.capacity` lists a VRAM region of at least 2 GB (a
+dedicated GPU; an integrated one registers a small carve-out) or it's already on, and is
+ticked by default; new in 2.3.0, so setups with the SteamOS conversion on
+get it ticked. CachyOS packages the userspace side, which it installs:
+
+- `dmemcg-booster`: `dmemcg-booster-system.service` enables the `dmem`
+  controller and sets `dmem.low` for the cgroup in front;
+  `dmemcg-booster-user.service` runs in the user session.
+- `plasma-foreground-booster`: tells it which window is in front on the
+  desktop. It only starts with `autostart=true` under `[Foreground Booster]`
+  in `kcgroupsrc`, which the wizard sets (and reverts).
+
+Check it with `cat /sys/fs/cgroup/cgroup.subtree_control` (lists `dmem`) and
+the `dmem.low` of the slices under `user@<uid>.service`. Turning it off
+disables the services and removes the packages the wizard installed.
+Not added: a fixed `dmem.max` cap for `app.slice` (as some guides do); only
+worth it if the booster itself turns out to cause stutter.
+
+## Feature versions (updates)
+
+Each component has a feature version (`FEATURE_VERSION` in `lib/menu.sh`):
+the Steamify version in which what it sets up last changed (2.1.0 for
+everything that hasn't changed since). After a component is turned on
+successfully, that version is recorded in `~/.local/state/cachyos-gamescope-boot/features.state`
+(turning it off records `off`). Whether a component is on is always checked
+on the system itself; the version only decides about updates:
+
+- **On, recorded version older** than the current one: ticked and
+  re-applied by a normal run; the plan (and the app's review) says
+  "update". A setup from before versions were recorded counts as 2.1.0,
+  so on a machine set up with 2.1.0, Steam Machine support (2.2.0) is
+  updated.
+- **A new default option** (not in `NO_PRESELECT`) whose parent is on (for
+  a top-level one: the SteamOS conversion) and that was never turned on or
+  off: ticked, so a normal run adds it. Turning it off once records `off`,
+  so it isn't ticked again. The menu and the app show it with a **New**
+  badge, and the plan says "new in this version".
+
+Set a component's entry to the new `VERSION` whenever what its
+`<id>_enable` sets up changes.

+# "HDMI refresh boost" menu item, Steam Machine (Fremont) only: finds the
+# highest refresh rate the display runs at the desktop resolution over HDMI,
+# tests it live and saves an EDID override per display, loaded only while
+# that display is connected (see hdmi_install_hotplug). Two things keep displays below what they can do:
+# - Monitors put their fast modes in an extra EDID block (HDMI Forum EEODB);
+#   the pinned kernel (7.1.6) only reads the first extension. Newer kernels
+#   do, and do HDMI 2.1, so it's only offered with the pinned kernel.
+# - Their fastest modes need HDMI 2.1 (FRL), which amdgpu doesn't do on
+#   every kernel; a mode with the display's shortest blanking at a slightly
+#   lower rate often still fits HDMI 2.0's TMDS limit (600 MHz).
+# What a display claims isn't what it accepts: every step is shown and must
+# be confirmed, and no answer within 15 s switches back (the screen may be
+# black). Sourced by steamify.sh; not meant to be run on its own.

+Steam Machine CEC: find amdgpu's HDMI port with a single CEC port.
+
+amdgpu registers its HDMI notifier without a port name, which only matches
+the driver's named lookup ("Port C") if the CEC driver loaded first; amdgpu
+loads from the initramfs, so it never does and /dev/cec0 stays at f.f.f.f.
+With a single CEC port, look the notifier up by device alone.

theupriser	6df19eba3e	feat: Power-off fix as its own sub-option, drop the kernel pin, feature versions 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.	2026-09-27 12:20:56 +02:00
theupriser	7694c97d68	feat: Power-off fix for the Steam Machine; the kernel pin is optional 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.	2026-09-27 12:13:23 +02:00

theupriser	929ecfb349	feat(ui): Manage button for HDMI refresh boost The item's switch becomes a Set up / Manage button. Manage lists the saved displays, removes one with its Remove button, and sets up the connected display when it has no saved rates.	2026-09-26 16:48:21 +02:00
theupriser	4cc87aaea6	feat: HDMI refresh boost per display, with a Saved displays screen Rates are saved per display (EDID ID) and loaded by the hotplug script for whichever display is connected.

theupriser	23ef5ef7ab	feat(ui): HDMI refresh boost in the app Set up… opens a screen with the display, its resolution and the rates on offer. The display's own faster mode is switched to right away; the other rates can each be tried live (wait for the picture, keep within 15 s or it switches back) and ticked; Install installs the ticked ones through apply --hdmi. All rates are loaded when the screen opens, so a try is only a mode switch. Also fixes switching back to a rate like 59.97 Hz.	2026-09-25 21:21:13 +02:00

theupriser	c9c16b9eec	fix(ui): Review and progress lists scroll; progress follows the running step	2026-09-25 16:02:19 +02:00
theupriser	b17addd60f	fix: Quote the backend's done event for shellcheck	2026-09-25 16:00:12 +02:00
theupriser	ac613f05b3	feat: GitHub builds the app; run it with curl steamify-app.tar.gz (ui/, steamify.sh, lib/, icon) and its launcher steamify-app.sh in every release: it installs to ~/.local/share/steamify/app, installs PySide6 if needed, adds a launcher entry and starts the app. STEAMIFY_BRANCH=<branch> runs a branch before it's released.	2026-09-25 15:59:47 +02:00
theupriser	3a0eefab11	fix(ui): Applying got stuck: the ticked items came in as a JS value Convert QML's array; if starting fails anyway, show the done screen with the reason instead of staying on the progress screen.	2026-09-25 15:56:41 +02:00
theupriser	96558a9ca8	feat(ui): BIOS check runs invisibly, then the warnings, then the progress bar	2026-09-25 15:55:15 +02:00
theupriser	7c48b3d806	feat: BIOS update in the app, with both warnings bios_enable split into bios_prepare (download, checksum, fwupd check) and bios_flash; the terminal flow is unchanged. The app: check, warning 1, warning 2 (type UPDATE, or hold A/OK for 5 seconds), flash, restart.	2026-09-25 15:53:30 +02:00
theupriser	396459b511	fix(ui): Controls aligned on the right, sub-items fold instead of the list jumping	2026-09-25 15:48:38 +02:00
theupriser	43a9541104	feat: Steamify app (v2 UI), first working version ui/steamify-ui (PySide6 + QML): menu, review, password, applying and done screens from the design, scaled to the window. Controller via evdev, keyboard, TV remote (cecd). steamify.sh --backend status\|apply (lib/backend.sh) drives the same components; sudo asks through an askpass helper.	2026-09-25 15:46:02 +02:00

theupriser	9dcac5cf08	fix: No lock screen in single user mode before a restart The screen locker only read kscreenlockerrc at the next login, so the PC still locked after idling until then. Reload it over D-Bus.	2026-09-25 14:01:00 +02:00

theupriser	1aa5e955fe	fix: Repair HDMI-CEC set up by 1.1.0/1.1.1 It only counts as on with the steam-launcher drop-in; installed without it, the menu ticks it, so a normal run adds it.	2026-09-25 13:16:48 +02:00

theupriser	f7aa2412df	fix: Steam's HDMI-CEC settings reach cecd on a first run 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.	2026-09-25 11:13:53 +02:00
