+## 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**
