HDR, Gnome, AMD and Gamescope
I'm trying to get HDR working on a fresh bazzite install. I'm using gnome, I have an HDR capable monitor and running an AMD 7800XT
I have this as my launch options:
gamescope -e --hdr-enabled -- %command%
I've also tried with -w 2560 -h 1440 and also adding -W 2560 -H 1440
I'm using helldivers 2 to test this with as it has an HDR toggle in the display settings. None of these allow me to toggle on HDR. I also don't have an option to toggle HDR in my display settings as I've seen in other threads.7 Replies
GNOME does not support HDR yet
You have to use Steam game mode
Or switch to KDE, by reinstalling
There's a very broken experimental switch you can enable to have it HDR in the desktop, but it is very much not worth it yet
dangit
so I can use steam game mode? Just launch big picture or what?
No big picture is something entirely different
Solution
You need the actual game mode session, only deck images have that
Or just wait for gnome to add support for HDR
any repos or anything to keep track of on that?
Nothing would happen until GNOME 48 at the earliest
Just watch the release notes
