# Gaming on NVIDIA PCs: the SteamOS conversion (gamescope session) isn't offered there, because gamescope's DRM session shows a
# corrupted picture on NVIDIA (NVIDIA's open bug 5240452: modes above 2560x1440@120). `nvidia` is the replacement: Steam on the
# Plasma desktop, installed when missing and started at login; `bigpicture` (a sub-option) makes it start in Big Picture.
# On a supported card (RTX 20 series or newer, `nvidia_supported`) it also sets up what NVIDIA's Wayland/DRM stack wants:
# nvidia-drm.modeset=1 and fbdev=1 on the kernel command line and the NVIDIA modules in the initramfs. That didn't cure
# gamescope's picture (the driver already reported both `Y`), but it is the standard setup and may be needed.
# Sourced by steamify.sh; not meant to be run on its own.
