Lenovo GO - external screen setup problems
Hi there! So I have 4k TV connected to my legion go the gaming mode works fine but on desktop mode it's glitch and ui won't fully show aka windows are too big. Any idea how to make it work? Fresh Bazzite install.

Also I want to format SD card and it won't work as on desktop mode if I use menu option to search it freezes ui
Was able to somehow format SD card but it's going to be hard to use heroic and other apps like this
Lenovo Legion Go - Bazzite Documentation
Bazzite is a custom image built upon Fedora Atomic Desktops that brings the best of Linux gaming to all of your devices.
Yes and tried the fix with not much luck
the problem is that the panel on the legion go only accepts 1 resolution
and you need to delete the file specified when the desktop is not running
otherwise it gets recreated when you logout
Yes tried use tty and reboot
and disconnected from the tv?
Nah I had it keep connect.
try without
So for now desktop mode is not usable with TV that is higher res than Lenovo?
i dont use my legion go with an external screen, kinda dont have any place to put it
IIRC the lenovo screen has to be its native resolution, i forgot if extended or duplicate has to be used
this is a problem on a lot of handhelds, but they dont end up with the static like the legion go does
Ok tried without tv and still half screen glitched
after removing the files when the desktop mode is not used and rebooted?
Correct
sudo reboot
rm ~/.config/kwin*
remove all kwin settings then
because that setting is not stored anywhere else
remove it while in game mode and do not go into desktop at allOk I changed resolution to 1600x2560
At least build in screen works
yeah that resolution has to stay like that
you can adjust the scale though
the built in screen resolution cannot be anything else
Nice was able have it set up
did anything specific trigger the issue that started all this? like a certain resolution being chosen or external display connection type.
I've been trying to see if I can get this to happen on my own legion go and have not been able to yet.
