Bypass Sign On Screen / Couch Gaming Question
I am trying to create a couch gaming-type console for my kids in the living room. I have installed Bazzite and due to having an Nvidia GPU I can only use the desktop variant though I did set Steam to launch in Big Picture Mode at startup. My questions are as follows:
1. How do I bypass the sign on screen when I wake from sleep or turn on the PC?
2. Am I able to turn my TV off and that automatically puts my PC to sleep?
3. Am I able to use Decky Loader? I installed it but I do not know how to access it as I don't know the hot key to open it up.

not sure about 3, but for the other 2:
in the settings search for sddm, here you can automate logging in on boot, select the account and X11 (or wayland if thats working on nvidia now)
for the second, no, as far as i am aware linux does not support HDMI CEC
steamdeck actually supports that

the problem is most desktop hw dont support cec but you can buy dongle for it
also doesnt cec works from pc -> tv not the other way around?
