gamescope's gaming mode shows a corrupted picture on NVIDIA (NVIDIA bug 5240452), also nested in KDE and in a KWin-only session. With an NVIDIA GPU the conversion (gaming, boot, single, glyphs) is hidden unless already on, and nvidia takes its place: Steam installed when missing and started at login on the Plasma desktop (user unit), with the sub-option bigpicture for Big Picture or the normal window. The kernel parameters and early NVIDIA modules (RTX 20 series or newer) are kept as part of it. tests/nvidia-test.sh covers the component and the menu rules against a fake GPU.
Services
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.
