a way to switch to x11 from wayland on steam deck?
Im experiencing quite a few of issues with bazzite that i did not have on steamdeck. I am trying to test solutions. has anyone been able to get x11 work. on KDE
KNot supported
KYou'd need to make a custom image
KAlso KDE has promised to mark any issue with X11 as closed/won't fix
KWe are following the same
KWhat issues are you having?
TIts a lot. controller issues. not being able to use scroll wheel bindings. keyboard not always showing in desktop mode. steam needs to be relaunched from desktop mode. no on screen keyboard alternative for wayland.
ui glitching. especially on game launch in gamemode. for example, the ui that slides in/out that shows the logo will repeat over a few times. external display issues.

KWhat kind of controller issues? Are you binding the scroll wheel in a game or is this on the desktop?
KAny game mode UI funny business is firmly within the realm of valve, we have no control over that
KIt's just the steam client
Tdoesnt do this on stock
KI have reproduced that behavior in steamos
KIt's random when it occurs
Tthis is consistent on bazzite
KOkay, I can't do anything about it
KYou are looking at the steam client
KIt is not consistent for me
KAs far as your keyboard not opening issue I have had that in steamos in the past. The fix is to close steam and open it again
KWe do not support alternative keyboards, neither does steamos
Tthis is a steam deck. i mean the onscreen keybaord.
KYes
Tso while unsupported there is no way to get help switching to x11. to test some of these issues. i have to make my own image or go back to steamos.
Tgot it
KLike I said it would require a custom image
KX11 is not even installed here
KWith the only exception being the Nvidia images
KEven if that fixed your problem it's a dead end, KDE will not support it and the option to install it is being eliminated within the next 5 months
KSame is true on GNOME
Tyes i understand it isnt installed out of the box. i was trying to figure out these autorun scripts or startup process.
KWe have a commit that removed all of the X11 stuff from our session model
KYou would need to revert that and then install the package in a custom image
KBasically a fork with a built-in expiration date
