i cant see my screen through steamlink if on desktop mode
i just installed bazzite (gnome) on my steamdeck this past weekend and one issue i noticed is that if im in desktop mode and i steamlink from my pc to my steamdeck the screen doesnt show on my pc. i can still control the mouse and keyboard over steamlink, i just cant see what I'm doing. it works correctly in game mode, just not in desktop mode. is this an issue with gnome and would if so would it work correctly if i installed the other desktop version? if so is there a way to switch desktop versions or do i have to reinstall the OS?

Correct me if I am wrong, but I remember something about it being because Steam Link doesn't work on wayland, BUT, with Gamescope, it works (valve did some of their magic ig). So since gamscope is only active in gamemode, it works there, but not in desktopmode.
So I don't know if there currently is a fix.
valve has to fix steamlink with wayland, use sunshine(server)+moonlight(client)
