+      request **into `main`**. Merging it publishes the release (below).
+    - A fix for a released version: a new `release/X.Y.Z+1` from `main`,
+      with the `bugfix/` branch into it; don't reopen an old release branch.
+    - Up to the release branch, the agent manages it: create the
+      `feature/`/`bugfix/` branches, commit, push, and merge them into the
+      release branch itself once tested (with `gh`: `gh pr create --base
+      release/X.Y.Z` + `gh pr merge --merge`; no review needed). Without
+      `gh` (`command -v gh`), ask the user to install it (Ubuntu:
+      `sudo apt install gh`, then `gh auth login`) instead of working around
+      it. Only the
+      release branch's pull request into `main` is the user's: never commit
+      or merge to `main`, the user merges that one. Never work directly on
+      `main` or a `release/*` branch either: edits, even uncommitted ones,
+      go on a `feature/`/`bugfix/` branch (create it before editing; the
+      release branch only gets the version-bump commit and merged PRs).
+      Don't push a new `release/*` branch before it's needed: a push can
+      start CI builds (a dev ISO).
+      A machine without a git identity: pass the repo's author per command
+      (`git -c user.name=... -c user.email=... commit`, taken from `git
+      log`) instead of changing the git config.
+      A `.no-release-yet` file at the root of a feature/bugfix branch means
+      it must not be merged into the release branch yet (work in progress,
+      untested on hardware). When the feature is complete, ask the user
+      whether it may be released; on a yes, delete the file, then open the
+      pull request and merge it.
+      Keep a feature/bugfix branch up to date by merging (or rebasing on)
+      its release branch, the release branch by merging `main` when that
+      moved.
+  - A push to `main` publishes release `v$VERSION` (tag + bundle + that
     changelog section) and marks it latest. An existing version is never
     overwritten: without a bump nothing is released, and pull requests show
-    a warning.
+    a warning when `VERSION` is a version that's already released (so a
+    release branch that forgot its bump shows it on every PR).
+  - A release that adds, removes or renames a menu row also retakes the
+    README screenshot (`assets/screenshot-menu-steam-machine.png`; NVIDIA PCs get the same menu, so there is no separate
+    one): the app from the branch on a Steam Machine, every row visible and the window only as tall as its options need, the header showing the new
+    `VERSION`, 1600 px wide. Size the window with a KWin script (match the `steamify-ui` class exactly: a title match also hits
+    Konsole and editor windows) and crop the full-screen capture to the client rectangle; mind the display scale (the Steam
+    Machine runs at 1.75).

+  keys: Enter must select (A), Esc must never quit (B); the app re-execs
+  without Steam's overlay preload.
+- Update notifications (`notify`, `lib/update-notifier.sh`, top-level,
+  ticked by default, 2.5.0): a user timer (daily, and the service is wanted
+  by `plasma-workspace.target`) runs `patches/steamify-notifier.py`, which

+  (`notify_seen` in the entry point, only while it's on, with `frontend`: app or terminal, which Open Steamify starts again, in a `systemd-run --scope` since the check's own unit is stopped when it exits). It must never
+  update anything itself: notification + tray icon, Open Steamify / Skip
+  this version (`skipped`). Desktop only (exits without `plasmashell`).
 - 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
+  `vram`/`vidmem` region (numbered too) of at least 2 GB, whatever the brand;
+  greyed out with an NVIDIA card whose driver lists none, `vram_selectable`,
+  faked with `WIZARD_VRAM_FAKE_NVIDIA=1`; `WIZARD_VRAM_CAPACITY=<file>` reads
+  the regions from a copy): 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`).
+- Install-time mode (`steamify.sh --defaults`, 2.6.0): applies what the menu
+  would preselect, no menu or prompts (needs passwordless sudo). The Steam
+  Machine ISO ([steamify-cachyos-live-iso](https://github.com/theupriser/steamify-cachyos-live-iso))
+  runs it in the installer for a user who has never logged in: no session
+  bus, user systemd or plasmashell. So every `systemctl --user` goes through
+  `user_systemctl` (`lib/common.sh`; without a session only unit files change,
+  via `--root=/`), and the theme, when the layout is still `/etc/skel`'s,
+  removes it so Plasma builds Vapor's layout at the first login. What needs
+  that layout (single user's launcher) runs then, from a one-time autostart
+  (`lib/first-login.sh`, `--first-login`) that also opens the app.
+  `--options <id>,...` (exactly these on, the rest off; an item on brings its
+  parent) and `--boot gamescope|desktop` (desktop only with `gaming`) (2.7.0,
+  `defaults_options` in `lib/menu.sh`); the ISO's installer page passes them.
+  Items this PC can't use are left off with a warning, not an error.
+  `steamify.sh --boot gamescope|desktop` on its own (2.7.0, for scripts) only
+  switches `boot` on an installed conversion: `WANTED` is `CURRENT` plus
+  that, so no updates or removals a normal run would pick.
+- What Steam's System settings show (SteamOS conversion, 2.9.0): the OS name
+  stays CachyOS's everywhere (legal clarity; Steam's OS Name is
+  `lsb_release -d`, not touched). `/etc/os-release` gets `VERSION_ID=steamos-X.Y`
+  (Steam's OS Version: Valve's newest jupiter repo; offline, the previous
+  value), `VERSION_CODENAME=steam-machine`, `VARIANT="Steamify <version>"` and
+  `VARIANT_ID=steamify-<version>` (Steam shows VARIANT_ID as OS Variant),
+  refreshed by `os_version_refresh` after every run that changes something; a
+  pacman hook (`zz-steamify-os-release`) runs after cachyos-hooks. KDE's About
+  this System would show VERSION_ID after the name: `kcm-about-distrorc`
+  `UseOSReleaseVersion=true` (kset) makes it show os-release's VERSION, which
+  CachyOS doesn't have. Never `NAME` or `PRETTY_NAME`: limine-snapper-sync
+  finds the boot entries by the OS name ("Target OS name ... not found in
+  /boot/limine.conf"); `/etc/default/limine` gets `TARGET_OS_NAME="CachyOS"`
+  when it has none, as a guard. The serial number (tmpfiles rule) is Steam
+  Machine support's, so Fremont only.
 - `Relogin=true` means a gamescope that fails to start is relaunched in a
   tight loop; keep that in mind when changing session handling.

+## 2.12.0 - 2026-10-13
+
+- **feat: the patched gamescope comes in one build per CPU level, like CachyOS's repositories (generic, x86-64-v3, v4, znver4): Steamify picks the best one this CPU can run (`gsn_cpu_variant`), falls back to generic, and starts the installed gamescope once headless (`gsn_smoke_test`): a build that doesn't start is replaced by the generic one. CI compiles each with an explicit `-march` (a `-march=native` build died with SIGILL on a Ryzen) and checks the binary for instructions beyond its level.**
+- **feat: on NVIDIA the gaming session runs on the display's own mode and Steam's interface at its size: a second gamescope patch (`gamescope-ui-native.patch`, release `3.16.31-3` of steamify-gamescope-nvidia, now the pin; built once per CPU level, see below) keeps Steam's UI X server at the output size when Steam (with `-steamos3`) asks for 1920x1080, and a wrapper (`gamescope-display-wrapper.sh`, set up by the conversion with a drop-in of `gamescope-session.service`) starts gamescope on the mode KDE has saved for the connected display, else the biggest mode at the highest refresh rate: before, gaming mode ran at the display's preferred mode (60 Hz on many monitors) with a 1080p Steam UI. Tested on an RTX 5080, 3440x1440@175: widescreen, sharp, a Proton game starts**
+
+- **fix: on an NVIDIA PC that had single user mode on before the SteamOS conversion, "Return to Gaming Mode" and the boot choice work again: single user mode's desktop autologin (`zzz-steamify-autologin.conf`, read last) pinned the Plasma session; the conversion removes it, and turning the conversion off sets it up again**
+
+- **fix: when an option fails, its sub-options are not applied any more (a failed conversion used to leave its "Boot into the desktop", silent start and icons on without it)**
+
+- **fix: a PC that keeps `python-hidapi` (liquidctl needs it) can use the SteamOS conversion: jupiter-hw-support, which gamescope-session-cachyos depends on, wants `python-hid`, which conflicts with it and stopped the package install. Steamify builds and installs an empty placeholder package that provides `python-hid` first (`patches/python-hid-shim.PKGBUILD`); only the Steam Deck controller firmware updater uses it**
+
+- **feat: the patched gamescope is downloaded as the newest release of steamify-gamescope-nvidia (checked against that release's `.sha256`), a newer one than the installed package shows the SteamOS conversion as an update, and what this Steamify was tested with is the fallback: the pinned package (sha256 in Steamify), the copy the ISO leaves, a build here; the repository's workflow builds each release in CachyOS's container**
+
+- `124b424`, `f234c72` **fix: HDMI-CEC on the Steam Machine no longer needs GitHub: when downloading Valve's CEC driver fails, Steamify uses the copy it carries (`patches/cros-ec-cec.c`), checked against the same pinned sha256**

It replaces "Gaming on NVIDIA", which is not offered any more (the kernel parameters, early modules, suspend memory and the 32-bit libraries come with the conversion on a supported card; a PC that had "Gaming on NVIDIA" on has it turned off when the conversion is turned on). Tested on an RTX 5080 (driver 615.78.08): Steam's gaming UI is clean with it and shows artifacts without. The package is pinned to one gamescope release: updating it is not automatic yet**
+
+- `ce4bc67` **feat: "Gaming on NVIDIA" also keeps video memory over suspend (`NVreg_PreserveVideoMemoryAllocations=1` in `/etc/modprobe.d/90-steamify-nvidia.conf`, the initramfs is rebuilt), enables `nvidia-suspend`/`nvidia-resume`/`nvidia-hibernate`, and installs `lib32-nvidia-utils` and `lib32-libxkbcommon` (32-bit games, the 32-bit MangoHud preload) on a supported card; off removes only what Steamify added.

+## 2.11.0 - 2026-10-01
+
+- `2e51d1d`, `3494924`, `fbdad5a`, `079e725`, `188799e` **feat: "Start Steam silently" sub-option: under the SteamOS conversion (`silent`, opt-in now: it was always on before; an existing one is moved from its systemd unit to the autostart entry by the "update") and under Gaming on NVIDIA (`nvsilent`, opt-in, not together with Big Picture); the SteamOS one is called "Start Steam silently in desktop mode" and is always shown, also on a Steam Machine; it is Steam's own autostart entry (`~/.config/autostart/steam.desktop`), so Steam's setting "Run Steam when my computer starts" follows it**
+- `2f7b53f` **fix: the Steam Machine's serial number step no longer fails inside the ISO's installer (`/sys` is read-only in its chroot; the tmpfiles.d file applies at the next boot anyway), which made `machine` report an error and the install log end with `exit: 1`**
+- `45a23af`, `bd8f387` **feat: `STEAMIFY_NO_DOWNLOAD` (the ISO's `steamify.nodownload` kernel parameter): the installed system's first login runs the Steamify bundle of the ISO instead of downloading the newest release (to test an unreleased Steamify)**
+- `f3810a9` **fix: the SteamOS theme no longer leaves a blank Discover pin in the taskbar (Plasma's default taskbar pins Discover, which CachyOS doesn't install); the taskbar gets CachyOS's own pins (System Settings, files, browser), also on the ISO's first login**
+- `7869b47` **feat: "Steam Deck/Machine icons" (`glyphs`) is a sub-option of the SteamOS conversion, like "Start Steam silently in desktop mode": it only changes gaming mode**
+- `4d387b2` **chore: the Steamify unit tests (`controllers-test.sh`, `nvidia-test.sh`) and the NVIDIA hardware test live in steamify-cachyos-dev (`tests/`) now; `tests/` is removed here**
+
+## 2.10.0 - 2026-10-01
+
+- `d6db4f6` **feat: "Gaming on NVIDIA" (nvidia) replaces the SteamOS conversion on PCs with an NVIDIA GPU, where gamescope's gaming mode shows a corrupted picture (NVIDIA bug 5240452): Steam is installed when missing and starts at login on the Plasma desktop; the sub-option "Steam starts in Big Picture" (bigpicture) starts it in Big Picture, unticked in its normal window, on an empty Plasma session so windows of the last session don't cover it. On a supported card (RTX 20 series or newer) it also sets the NVIDIA kernel parameters and early modules. The conversion and its options are hidden there unless already on**
+- `d1373e2` **feat: single user mode also works on NVIDIA PCs, without the SteamOS conversion**
+- `5811f5c` **fix: "Add as non-Steam game" isn't offered on NVIDIA PCs (shown when already on, so it can be turned off)**
+- `83248a8` **feat: Extended controller support (extended_controller_support, off by default): the Xbox wireless dongle (xone) and Xbox controllers over Bluetooth with rumble and battery level (xpadneo), built for every installed kernel; off removes only what Steamify installed**
+- `01a77b7` **feat: a new opt-in option (unticked by default) shows the "new" badge in the menu and the app**

+## Gaming on NVIDIA
+
+gamescope's own gaming mode shows a corrupted picture on NVIDIA graphics cards: NVIDIA's open bug 5240452 (flicker and
+artifacts in the DRM session at modes above 2560x1440@120, seen up to driver 595 and on RTX 3070 Ti, 4090, 5090 and 5080;
+no fix known). The kernel parameters `nvidia-drm.modeset=1`/`fbdev=1` and loading the NVIDIA modules early don't change it
+(the driver already reports both `Y`), and gamescope started nested inside KDE artifacts too when KWin hands its fullscreen
+window straight to the display. What does work on an RTX 5080: Steam's Big Picture (`steam -gamepadui`) as a normal window of
+the Plasma desktop session, smooth and clean.
+
+Since 2.12.0 there is a second way: gamescope with GBM-allocated scan-out buffers (`lib/gamescope-nvidia.sh`). On an RTX 5080
+(driver 615.78.08, 3440x1440@175) Steam's gaming UI in gamescope's DRM session is clean with it and shows artifacts everywhere
+without. The patch is nine commits of [farnoy/gamescope](https://github.com/farnoy/gamescope) (`nvidia-gbm-wayland`), carried in
+`patches/` (`gamescope-gbm-scanout.patch` and the recipe `gamescope-nvidia.PKGBUILD`, kept in sync with
+[steamify-gamescope-nvidia](https://github.com/theupriser/steamify-gamescope-nvidia), where new gamescope versions are
+prepared). gamescope changes every few weeks, so the package is downloaded, not carried: `gsn_install_package` takes the
+**newest release** of that repository (CI builds it in CachyOS's container, once per CPU level: generic, v3, v4, znver4, each checked for instructions beyond its level; a person merges the version bump). `gsn_cpu_variant` picks the build for this CPU (the dynamic loader's x86-64 level; AMD with `avx512_bf16` is znver4), generic is the fallback, and `gsn_smoke_test` runs the installed gamescope headless and swaps in generic when it doesn't start. The package is checked against the pinned hash
+or the release's `.sha256`, and installed with `pacman -U --ask 4` (the package provides and conflicts with `gamescope`). What
+this Steamify release was tested with is the fallback, in this order: the pinned package (`GSN_VERSION`, `GSN_SHA256`: from GitHub, the
+cache, or the copy the ISO leaves in `/usr/local/share/steamify/gamescope`), then a build here from the recipe and patch in `patches/`
+(`makepkg -sf` as the user, in `~/.cache/steamify`; no checksums on gamescope's own sources). A package that downloaded fine but
+doesn't install goes on to the next step; nothing changes before one of them is installed. A newer release than the installed package
+shows the conversion as an update (`gsn_update_pending`, looked up at most every six hours, quiet offline). Simple files that don't
+change (the power-off module, small patches) stay in `patches/` as they are. It is opt-in inside gamescope: `gamescope_drm_gbm_scanout=1` in
+`~/.config/gamescope-session/environment` and `~/.config/environment.d/99-steamify-gamescope-nvidia.conf`. The SteamOS conversion
+(`gaming_enable`) does this on every NVIDIA PC (`nvidia_present`: PCI vendor 0x10de, display class, its driver providing
+`nvidia_drm`), together with what "Gaming on NVIDIA" set up (on a supported card, `nvidia_supported`: GTX 16 / RTX 20 series or
+newer, Turing and later): the kernel parameters, the early modules, suspend memory, the 32-bit libraries (`nvidia_kernel_enable`,
+`nvidia_extras_enable`). So the SteamOS conversion is the one gaming option on NVIDIA now, and "Gaming on NVIDIA" (below) is not
+offered any more (`nvidia_available`); a PC that had it on keeps it until the conversion is turned on, which turns it off
+(`nvidia_swap_out`). Turning the conversion off removes the setting and those settings, and keeps the packages. Tested on an RTX 5080 only.
+
+Before 2.12.0, with an NVIDIA GPU the SteamOS conversion (`gaming`, and its options `boot`, `single`, `glyphs`) wasn't offered, unless
+it was already on. `nvidia` ("Gaming on NVIDIA", `lib/nvidia.sh`) took its place (both would start Steam at login): it installs `steam` when missing (recorded in state `nvidia`, removed again only then) and enables the user
+unit `steamify-steam-autostart.service` (`services/`, `ExecStart=/usr/bin/steam @ARGS@`, Plasma only). Its sub-option
+`bigpicture` ("Steam starts in Big Picture", ticked along with it) rewrites the unit with `-gamepadui` and sets
+`ksmserverrc [General] loginMode=emptySession` (`kset`, undone with `krevert bigpicture`), so windows of the last session
+(Discord, a browser) aren't restored on top of Big Picture; unticked, Steam starts in its normal window. The opt-in sub-option `nvsilent` ("Start Steam silently") rewrites the unit with `-silent`
+(tray only); it and `bigpicture` exclude each other. The PC always boots into the desktop: there is no gamescope session. Takes effect at the next
+login.
+
+On a supported card (RTX 20 series or newer: not on chwd's legacy lists `/var/lib/chwd/ids/nvidia-*.ids`, the VRAM booster's
+check, `vram_nvidia_legacy_id`; `nvidia_supported`) enabling it also does what NVIDIA's DRM stack wants, though it didn't cure
+gamescope: `nvidia-drm.modeset=1 nvidia-drm.fbdev=1` on the kernel command line (Limine, systemd-boot or GRUB; the file is
+backed up first; on Limine into the existing `KERNEL_CMDLINE[default]="..."` or `+="..."` line, never an extra appended line,
+which ends up as text; the kernel treats `nvidia_drm` and `nvidia-drm` alike) and
+`/etc/mkinitcpio.conf.d/90-steamify-nvidia.conf` (`MODULES+=(nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm)`), then the initramfs
+and boot entries are rebuilt and checked for the parameters. The early-load drop-in is only there while every installed kernel
+has the NVIDIA modules (mkinitcpio fails on a missing module, and `limine-mkinitcpio` then skips that kernel's boot entry):
+a pacman hook (`/etc/pacman.d/hooks/85-steamify-nvidia-initramfs.hook`, after DKMS, before the initramfs is built) runs
+`/usr/local/libexec/steamify-nvidia-initramfs` at every kernel or driver change and decides again. Turning it off removes
+all of it. The tests are in steamify-cachyos-dev: `tests/nvidia-test.sh` (a fake GPU, a stub `pacman` and `systemctl`, a temp home) and `tests/nvidia-hardware-test.sh` (a real NVIDIA PC).

@@ -236,17 +354,77 @@ 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.
 
+## Add as non-Steam game
+
+A sub-option of the Steamify shortcut (`steamgame`, `lib/steam-game.sh`, new
+in 2.5.1, ticked along with the shortcut): Steamify CachyOS in every Steam
+account's non-Steam games (`~/.local/share/Steam/userdata/<id>/config/shortcuts.vdf`,
+binary VDF, edited by `patches/steam-shortcuts.py`), starting the shortcut's
+`run-app`, with the icon rendered as PNG (`~/.local/share/steamify/steamify.png`;
+Steam shows no SVG). Why: while Steam runs, a Steam Controller only talks to
+Steam, which gives its input to the game it started (Steam Input); on the
+desktop through its desktop layout (A = Enter, B = Esc, Y = Space, X =
+Steam's keyboard), in gaming mode as a gamepad.
+
+Steam reads the list only at startup and writes it back on exit, so Steam is
+closed (`steam -shutdown`) for the edit and started again (`steam -silent`). That's refused in gaming
+mode and when Steamify itself was started from Steam (`SteamGameId`), since
+closing Steam would end it. An entry for the start script that's already
+there (added by hand, or with the path from before 2.5.0) is updated, not
+added twice; what was done is recorded per account (state `steamgame`:
+`<account>=<appid> added|updated`) and a copy of each list is kept in the
+state directory before the first change. Turning it off (or the shortcut)
+removes every entry for the start script, since it can't start anything
+without it.
+
+Started from Steam, the app re-executes itself without Steam's overlay
+(`LD_PRELOAD` of `gameoverlayrenderer.so` makes Qt abort) and
+`steamify-app.sh` keeps it in the foreground (`SteamGameId`), or Steam
+counts the game as ended right away and stops giving it the controller.
+
+## Update notifications
+
+The **Update notifications** option (new in 2.5.0, ticked by default)
+installs `patches/steamify-notifier.py` as
+`~/.local/share/steamify/bin/steamify-notifier` with two user
+units in `~/.config/systemd/user`: `steamify-update-check.timer` (daily,
+`Persistent=`) and `steamify-update-check.service` (also wanted by
+`plasma-workspace.target`, so it checks a minute after each desktop login).
+Nothing stays running while there's no update.
+
+Every Steamify run records its version as `seen` (`notify.state`). The check
+asks GitHub for the newest release; when it's newer than `seen` and not the
+`skipped` version, it shows a notification (`notify-send` with the buttons
+**Open Steamify** and **Skip this version**) and a tray icon (click: open;
+menu: open, skip, remind me later). Closing the notification keeps the
+icon; opening Steamify in any way records the new version and ends it. It
+only runs on the Plasma desktop: gamescope shows no notifications or tray,
+so an update found in gaming mode waits for the next desktop login. It never
+installs anything: the shortcut always starts the newest release, which then
+shows what's new or updated for this install.

 ## 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`

+whatever its name. NVIDIA's closed modules don't: with such a card the option is shown greyed
+out with what to do (`vram_nvidia_case`): open modules older than 615 ->
+update; the closed driver on a card the open one supports (not in chwd's
+legacy lists `/var/lib/chwd/ids/nvidia-{580,470,390}.ids`) -> the `chwd`

+## Where Steamify keeps its files
+
+In the home folder, everything is under `steamify`:
+
+| Where | What |
+|---|---|
+| `~/.local/state/steamify/` | State (`*.state`), undo journals (`*.journal`), the saved panel layout (`theme-layout/`) |
+| `~/.local/share/steamify/app/` | The app (`steamify-app.sh` downloads it here) |
+| `~/.local/share/steamify/bin/` | The shortcut's start scripts (`run-app`, `run-wizard`) and `steamify-notifier` |
+| `~/.local/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/steamify.svg` | The shortcut's icon |
+| `~/.local/share/applications/steamify-*.desktop` | The launcher entries |
+| `~/.config/autostart/steam.desktop` | the `silent` option (Steam's "Run Steam when my computer starts") |
+| `~/.config/systemd/user/` | `steamify-update-check.*` |
+
+System-wide: `/usr/local/lib/steamify/` (kernel headers script),
+`/usr/src/steamify-*` (DKMS modules), `/var/cache/steamify/kernel` (the old
+kernel pin's packages), and `*.bak-gamescope-wizard` backups next to the
+system files that were edited (that name stays: it's how they're found again).
+
+Before 2.5.0 the home folder paths used the project's old name
+(`cachyos-gamescope-boot`). `migrate_layout` (`lib/state.sh`) moves them at
+every start of a newer version, once, and leaves symlinks under the old names
+so an older release still finds the same state; it fixes the paths in the
+launcher entries and the update check's unit, and merges when both exist.
+The headers script moves when Steam Machine support is set up again.

 | `steamify-fremont-poweroff.c` | `lib/fremont-poweroff.sh` (Steam Machine support) | Kernel module (DKMS): clears GPIO 18's S4/S5 wake bit before power-off, so the Steam Machine stays off with recent kernels |
+| `sync-steamos-session.sh` | `lib/login-manager.sh` (SteamOS conversion, plasma-login-manager) | The sync bridge: copies Steam's session choice from `zz-steamos-autologin.conf` into `plasmalogin.conf`'s `[Autologin]` |
+| `ensure-kernel-headers.sh` | `lib/steam-machine.sh` (Steam Machine support) | Run at boot: installs missing headers for every installed kernel |
+| `leds-valve-dkms.conf` | `lib/steam-machine.sh` (Steam Machine support) | `/etc/dkms` override: build the LED driver for DKMS's target kernel; appended to someone's own override, which is backed up and restored |

VERSION=... STEAMOS=...`) |

+| `gamescope-gbm-scanout.patch` | `lib/gamescope-nvidia.sh` (gamescope on NVIDIA) | gamescope 3.16.31 patch: scan-out buffers allocated with GBM (opt-in, `gamescope_drm_gbm_scanout=1`), which cures the corrupted picture on NVIDIA; from farnoy/gamescope, see the header of the file |

+Keeps Steam's UI X server (server 0) at the output size when Steam asks for a smaller one.
+
+With -steamos3 (what gamescope-session-cachyos passes) Steam sets its UI to 1920x1080 right after it starts
+(GAMESCOPE_XWAYLAND_MODE_CONTROL), so on a bigger display, and on one that isn't 16:9, the whole interface is a scaled-up
+1080p picture. Games already run at the display's size. With this the server stays at the output size and Steam draws its
+window to match; Steam's SteamOS features (settings pages, game launching) keep working. Written for Steamify on an NVIDIA
+PC (RTX 5080, 3440x1440@175, tested with Steam's UI and a Proton game); not part of the farnoy patch. On by default; the
+setting gamescope_xwayland_ui_native=0 (in gamescope's environment) turns it off.
+Applies with `git apply` after gamescope-gbm-scanout.patch (it ignores these lines).

+The systemd units Steamify installs, kept out of the shell code so they can
+be read and reviewed on their own. `lib/*.sh` reads them with `service_file
+<name> [KEY=value...]`, which fills in `@KEY@` placeholders (paths the
+scripts define); the single-file build (`.github/tools/bundle.sh`) embeds
+them. Small drop-ins that only add a line or two to someone else's unit stay
+in the shell code.
+
+| File | Used by | What |
+|---|---|---|
+| `steamify-boot-desktop.service` | `lib/boot-session.sh` (Boot into: desktop) | Sets the Plasma session before the login manager starts |
+| `sync-steamos-session.path`, `.service` | `lib/login-manager.sh` (SteamOS conversion, plasma-login-manager) | The sync bridge: copies Steam's session choice into `plasmalogin.conf` |
+| `steamify-steam-autostart.service` | `lib/nvidia.sh` (Gaming on NVIDIA) | Steam at login on the Plasma desktop, normal or in Big Picture (user unit) |
+| `ensure-kernel-headers.service` | `lib/steam-machine.sh` (Steam Machine support) | Installs missing kernel headers at boot, so DKMS builds for every kernel |
+| `steamify-update-check.service`, `.timer` | `lib/update-notifier.sh` (Update notifications) | The daily and login check for a new release (user units) |
