Mangohud on all Steam games?
I've recently moved my desktop over to Bazzite, as well as having had my laptop on Bazzite for quite some time. Traditionally, I've added
mangohud to the steam.deskop file under Exec, but with Bazzite being immutable I can't exactly do that here. Are there any suggestions on the best way to do this? I'm currently using bazzite-gnome.Solution:Jump to solution

copy the steam desktop file over to your
.local/share/applications folder and edit it there!then you can do whatever you needed to do + youll have a "backup" of sorts by not editing the system file
oh, that works like that? Sick
thanks
lemme give that a try
This seems to work, but between reboots it does require
update-desktop-database for mangohud add-in. I'll see about adding it as a cron job and see if that fixes ittry changing the name in the desktop file to make it into a separate entry
the system is probably updating the application PATH and is overriding your .local/share/application entry
just make something like
Steam (Mangohud) or something like thatThis absolutely fixed it, and it also slipped my mind that copy of steam.desktop in
/usr/share/applications is part of the Bazzite "Startup Applications" on GNOME. Once I removed that, no issues at all. Thank you for your help!
