docs: restructure host setup by distro, configuration by compositor

Split the docs' single distro×desktop axis (ubuntu-gnome / ubuntu-kde / fedora-kde) into two,
which deduplicates the shared mechanics and scales to distros that run several desktops (Arch):

- Install the host — per distro/OS (ubuntu, fedora, arch, bazzite, steamos-host, windows-host):
  GPU driver + package + input group, then a canonical "Configure your desktop" funnel.
- Configure your desktop — per compositor (kde, gnome, gamescope, sway): host.env, compositor
  quirks, the headless session, and starting the host.

New shared web-console page (enable · login password · arm pairing) removes the console/password
block that was copy-pasted across all seven host pages. Merged ubuntu-gnome + ubuntu-kde into
ubuntu; renamed fedora-kde to fedora; kept bazzite and steamos-host as dedicated appliance guides
(trimmed of duplication). Moved the KWin headless session, the GNOME EGL/lock traps, and the
gamescope attach/managed model out of the distro pages onto their compositor pages.

Fixed while restructuring: distro-specific paths on kde (kde-desktop-setup.sh is Fedora/Bazzite-only;
the .deb ships host.env.kde under /usr/share/punktfunk-host), the interactive "start the host" step
that was lost in the merge, sway over-claiming Hyprland, and a pre-existing broken anchor in
how-it-works.

Removal of the three old pages was captured by the preceding commit 8ebb614 (a concurrent commit
swept up the staged git-rm); the net docs tree is correct. Fumadocs build + internal link/anchor
check green.

+description: Install the punktfunk host on Fedora from the RPM registry.
+---
+
+Install a punktfunk host on **Fedora** from the self-hosted RPM registry. The host installs as an
+RPM-managed systemd **`--user`** service and updates with `dnf upgrade` like the rest of your
+system — no building required. It works with either **KDE Plasma** or **GNOME**; the
+desktop-specific setup (which compositor captures, headless sessions, quirks) lives on the
+[desktop configure pages](#3-configure-your-desktop). Host encode is **NVENC on NVIDIA** and **VAAPI on
+AMD/Intel** (`PUNKTFUNK_ENCODER=auto` picks per GPU).
+
+> New here? Read [Security & Safe Use](/docs/security) first — a streaming host is remote control of
+> the machine, so keep it on a trusted LAN or VPN and require pairing.
+
+Install is two parts: **GPU driver** → **host RPM**. Then point the host at your desktop from the
+[desktop configure pages](#3-configure-your-desktop).
+
+## 1. NVIDIA driver (RPM Fusion akmod)
+
+Enable RPM Fusion (free + nonfree), then install the akmod driver + CUDA. RPM Fusion's nonfree
+NVIDIA repo is sometimes pre-enabled on some spins; the full free/nonfree repos below are still
+needed (they carry the NVENC ffmpeg in the next step).
+
+```sh
+sudo dnf install \
+  https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm \
+  https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
+sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda
+```
+
+**NVENC ffmpeg.** Fedora ships `ffmpeg-free`, which is built **without** NVENC — the host can't
+encode with it. Swap to RPM Fusion's ffmpeg:
+
+```sh
+sudo dnf install --allowerasing ffmpeg ffmpeg-libs
+ffmpeg -hide_banner -encoders | grep nvenc   # expect hevc_nvenc / av1_nvenc / h264_nvenc
+```
+
+**Secure Boot.** If `mokutil --sb-state` says *enabled*, the akmod module is signed with a
+locally-generated key that must be enrolled once:
+
+```sh
+sudo akmods --force                                              # build + sign the module
+sudo mokutil --import /etc/pki/akmods/certs/public_key.der       # set a one-time password
+sudo reboot
+```
+
+On the next boot a blue **MOK Manager** screen appears **on the machine's console** (not over
+SSH): *Enroll MOK → Continue → Yes → (the password) → Reboot*. Then verify:
+
+```sh
+nvidia-smi                              # driver loads
+ffmpeg -hide_banner -encoders | grep nvenc
+```
+
+(Or disable Secure Boot in firmware to skip the MOK step — fine for a dedicated test box.)
+
+**AMD / Intel (VAAPI).** No akmod needed — the Mesa stack provides the VAAPI encoder. Install the
+freeworld VAAPI drivers for full codec support (`mesa-va-drivers-freeworld` for AMD from RPM Fusion,
+`intel-media-driver` for Intel); on a desktop these are usually already present. The host auto-picks
+VAAPI on these GPUs.
+
+## 2. Install the host (RPM)
+
+The host is published to the self-hosted Gitea RPM registry, in a per-Fedora-release group (an RPM
+is soname-coupled to its base, so Fedora 44 has its own `fedora-44` group). Add the repo and
+install:
+
+```sh
+sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/punktfunk.repo >/dev/null <<'REPO'
+[punktfunk]
+name=punktfunk
+baseurl=https://git.unom.io/api/packages/unom/rpm/fedora-44
+enabled=1
+# Packages are GPG-signed (gpgcheck=1) AND the repo metadata is Gitea-signed (repo_gpgcheck=1).

+       https://git.unom.io/api/packages/unom/generic/punktfunk-keys/1/RPM-GPG-KEY-punktfunk
+REPO
+
+sudo dnf install punktfunk
+sudo usermod -aG input "$USER"     # /dev/uinput access for virtual gamepads (re-login to apply)
+```
+
+Updates later are just `sudo dnf upgrade punktfunk`. The package ships the systemd user units, the
+udev rule, the UDP socket-buffer sysctl tuning, and example configs.
+
+> No matching `fedora-NN` group for your release yet? Build one with the same toolchain CI uses —
+> `docker build --build-arg FEDORA_VERSION=NN -f ci/fedora-rpm.Dockerfile -t pf-rpm ci` then run

+title: Steam / gamescope
+description: Configure a gamescope/Steam host — attach vs managed, session following, and limits.
+---
+
+gamescope is the compositor behind Steam **Gaming Mode** — the couch/handheld game UI on Bazzite,
+SteamOS, or any distro running a gamescope session. The host **auto-detects** gamescope from your
+live session, so you rarely need to set anything here. It also **follows a Gaming ↔ Desktop switch
+mid-stream** — flip between Gaming Mode and the desktop with Steam's normal UI and the host
+re-targets whatever's running without a reconnect.
+
+This page covers the gamescope-specific choices. To get a host running on an appliance box, start
+from the install guide for your OS: [Bazzite](/docs/bazzite) or [SteamOS (Host)](/docs/steamos-host).
+
+> New here? Read [Security & Safe Use](/docs/security) first — a streaming host is remote control of
+> the machine, so keep it on a trusted LAN or VPN and require pairing.
+
+## Attach vs managed
+
+There are two mutually-exclusive models for a gamescope box; pick one. The shipped default is
+**attach**.
+
+- **Attach** (`PUNKTFUNK_GAMESCOPE_ATTACH=1`, the default) — the **box** owns its gamescope session
+  and decides Gaming vs Desktop via the normal Steam UI. The host just attaches to whatever's live
+  and never tears it down, so switching Desktop ↔ Game is rock-solid and disconnecting leaves the box
+  where it was. The streamed game-mode resolution is the box's gamescope mode
+  (`SCREEN_WIDTH/HEIGHT` in `/etc/gamescope-session-plus/sessions.d/steam`), not the client's.
+- **Managed** (`PUNKTFUNK_GAMESCOPE_MANAGED=1`, and remove the attach line) — the host tears the
+  box's gamescope down on connect and launches its **own** at the *client's* exact resolution and
+  refresh, restoring on idle. Client-mode-following, but it can't coexist with a box-owned game-mode
+  session, and there must be **no physical gaming session already running**.
+
+## Session following
+
+`PUNKTFUNK_SESSION_WATCH` follows a Gaming ↔ Desktop switch **mid-stream** — the host rebuilds the
+backend in place, with no reconnect. It is **on by default** on Bazzite/SteamOS; set `0` to disable.
+One host service covers both faces of the box: it streams Gaming Mode over gamescope and the desktop
+over its own compositor, and re-targets whichever is live on each switch.
+
+## Start the host
+
+On an appliance box (Bazzite, SteamOS) the install guide already enables the host service for you. On
+any other distro running a gamescope session, start it from your session — the default attach model
+just latches onto whatever gamescope session is live:
+
+```sh
+systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-host
+```
+
+Then bring up [The Web Console](/docs/web-console) to arm pairing.
+
+## gamescope knobs
+
+The gamescope-specific settings in `host.env`. Leave them unset to auto-detect; set one only to force
+a model. See the full [Configuration reference](/docs/configuration) for every other knob.
+
+| Setting | Values | Meaning |
+|---|---|---|
+| `PUNKTFUNK_GAMESCOPE_ATTACH` | `1` | **Attach** model: the box owns its gamescope session; the host captures whatever's live and never tears it down. Streamed resolution is the box's gamescope mode. The default. |
+| `PUNKTFUNK_GAMESCOPE_MANAGED` | `1` | **Managed** model: the host tears the box's gamescope down on connect and launches its own at the client's exact mode, restoring on idle. Doesn't coexist with a box-owned game-mode session. |
+| `PUNKTFUNK_GAMESCOPE_SESSION` | `steam` | The host owns a `gamescope-session-plus` (Steam) session at the client's mode — a headless appliance with no physical session running. |
+| `PUNKTFUNK_GAMESCOPE_NODE` | `auto` · node id | Discover and capture a **running** gamescope's PipeWire node at a fixed mode. Do **not** combine with `SESSION`. |
+| `PUNKTFUNK_GAMESCOPE_APP` | command | For an ad-hoc bare-gamescope session, the nested command to run (e.g. `vkcube`). |
+| `PUNKTFUNK_SESSION_WATCH` | `1` · `0` | Follow a Gaming ↔ Desktop switch mid-stream (rebuild in place, no reconnect). On by default on Bazzite/SteamOS; set `0` to disable. |
+
+## Known limits
+
+These apply to the **Gaming Mode (gamescope)** path only; the desktop path is unaffected.
+
+- **gamescope 3.16.22 or newer is required.** Older versions can deadlock during capture. Bazzite's
+  and SteamOS's current gamescope is fine; this only bites if you've pinned an old one.
+- **The mouse cursor isn't included in the captured image** — a gamescope limitation for now.
+- **HDR isn't supported on the gamescope path** — gamescope's capture output is 8-bit. SDR streams
+  normally.

+title: GNOME (Mutter)
+description: Configure a punktfunk host for GNOME — host.env, the EGL/lock traps, and a headless session.
+---
+
+Configure a host running **GNOME**. The host drives GNOME's Mutter compositor to create a per-client
+virtual display over D-Bus (`RecordVirtual`), zero-copy. This page assumes the host is already
+installed — see [Ubuntu](/docs/ubuntu), [Fedora](/docs/fedora), or [Arch](/docs/arch).
+
+> New here? Read [Security & Safe Use](/docs/security) first — a streaming host is remote control of
+> the machine, so keep it on a trusted LAN or VPN and require pairing.
+
+## host.env
+
+Write `~/.config/punktfunk/host.env` with the GNOME settings. The host auto-detects the compositor
+from your session, so the explicit `PUNKTFUNK_COMPOSITOR` is belt-and-braces:
+
+```ini
+# ~/.config/punktfunk/host.env
+WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0
+XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME
+PUNKTFUNK_COMPOSITOR=mutter
+PUNKTFUNK_VIDEO_SOURCE=virtual
+PUNKTFUNK_ZEROCOPY=1
+PUNKTFUNK_INPUT_BACKEND=libei
+```
+
+You must be on a **Wayland** session (not X11), and Mutter must be **≥ 48**. See the
+[Configuration reference](/docs/configuration) for every option.
+
+## The GL/EGL userspace
+
+On NVIDIA, gnome-shell fails to start — or the host logs **"GPU … not supported by EGL"** — when the
+NVIDIA GL/EGL userspace is missing. The base driver package doesn't always pull it in. Install your
+distro's NVIDIA GL/EGL userspace package — on **Ubuntu/Debian** it's `libnvidia-gl-<version>` matching
+your driver; on **Fedora/Arch** it ships with the RPM Fusion / repo driver — then confirm the glvnd
+vendor file exists:
+
+```sh
+ls /usr/share/glvnd/egl_vendor.d/10_nvidia.json    # must exist
+```
+
+Installing the driver itself is covered on your distro's install page
+([Ubuntu](/docs/ubuntu), [Fedora](/docs/fedora), [Arch](/docs/arch)).
+
+## Do not lock the session
+
+A **locked** GNOME session blocks screen capture — the host fails with
+**"Session creation inhibited"**. On an always-on or headless host there's no one to unlock it, so
+disable the lock:
+
+```sh
+gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver lock-enabled false
+gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.session idle-delay 0
+```
+
+## Start the host
+
+With `host.env` in place, start the host from **inside your GNOME session**:
+
+```sh
+systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-host
+journalctl --user -u punktfunk-host -f   # watch it come up and print its identity fingerprint
+```
+
+Then bring up [The Web Console](/docs/web-console) to arm pairing and connect a
+[client](/docs/clients). For an always-on box, see the [headless session](#headless-session) below.
+
+## Headless session
+
+To run with no monitor and no login, keep a GNOME Wayland session up at all times and start the host
+without a login. Have GDM auto-login your user:
+
+```ini
+# /etc/gdm3/custom.conf  (Ubuntu)   ·   /etc/gdm/custom.conf  (Fedora)
+[daemon]
+AutomaticLoginEnable = true
+AutomaticLogin = your-user
+```
+
+Disable the lock (see [above](#do-not-lock-the-session)), then enable the host user service and let it
+linger past logout:
+
+```sh
+systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-host
+sudo loginctl enable-linger "$USER"
+```
+
+Reboot and the host comes up on the auto-login session. Full walkthrough:
+[Running as a Service](/docs/running-as-a-service).

+description: Configure a punktfunk host for KDE — host.env, quirks, and a headless KWin session.
+---
+
+Configure a punktfunk host on **KDE Plasma**. The host uses KDE's KWin compositor to create a
+per-client virtual display, captured zero-copy on NVIDIA. This page assumes the package is already
+installed — see [Ubuntu](/docs/ubuntu), [Fedora](/docs/fedora), [Arch](/docs/arch), or the
+[Bazzite](/docs/bazzite) appliance.
+
+> New here? Read [Security & Safe Use](/docs/security) first — a streaming host is remote control of

+
+## host.env
+
+A KDE starter `~/.config/punktfunk/host.env`:
+
+```ini
+WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0
+XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=KDE
+PUNKTFUNK_COMPOSITOR=kwin
+PUNKTFUNK_VIDEO_SOURCE=virtual
+PUNKTFUNK_ZEROCOPY=1
+PUNKTFUNK_INPUT_BACKEND=libei
+```
+
+The host auto-detects the running compositor on every connect, so most of this is optional — the
+values above are just what it resolves to on a KWin session. See the
+[Configuration reference](/docs/configuration) for every option.
+
+## Use a Wayland session
+
+KDE must run on **Wayland**, not X11 — pick the Wayland session from the picker on the login screen.
+The virtual-display path is Wayland-only and will not come up under X11.
+
+KWin must be **6.5.6 or newer** (virtual outputs land there). Check with:
+
+```sh
+kwin_wayland --version
+```
+
+## Streaming the interactive desktop
+
+To stream a logged-in Plasma desktop (rather than a headless session, below), KWin has to hand the
+host its restricted screencast protocol. The host package ships an `io.unom.Punktfunk.Host.desktop`
+file whose `X-KDE-Wayland-Interfaces` grants exactly that on a normal interactive session
+(least-privilege, the same mechanism krfb/krdp use). After a **fresh install, log out and back into
+the Desktop session once** so KWin re-reads the grant.
+
+A normal KDE login still lacks the RemoteDesktop grant that **input** injection needs — without it the
+host pops an "Allow remote control?" dialog no headless box can answer. **Fedora and Bazzite** ship a
+one-shot helper that seeds it (run once as the streaming user, no root):
+
+```sh
+bash /usr/share/punktfunk/bazzite/kde-desktop-setup.sh    # Fedora / Bazzite
+```
+
+The `.deb` and Arch packages don't include that wrapper. Seed the grant by hand instead — copy the
+shipped `kde-authorized` file into the portal store (the share dir is `/usr/share/punktfunk-host` on
+Debian/Ubuntu, `/usr/share/punktfunk` on Arch), then log out and back in:
+
+```sh
+mkdir -p ~/.local/share/flatpak/db
+cp /usr/share/punktfunk*/headless/kde-authorized ~/.local/share/flatpak/db/kde-authorized
+```
+
+A login-less appliance skips all of this — its headless session (below) needs none of these grants.
+
+## Start the host
+
+With `host.env` in place, start the host from **inside your Plasma session**:
+
+```sh
+systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-host
+journalctl --user -u punktfunk-host -f   # watch it come up and print its identity fingerprint
+```
+
+Then bring up [The Web Console](/docs/web-console) to arm pairing and connect a
+[client](/docs/clients). To start at boot — including fully headless — see the
+[headless session](#headless-session) below or [Running as a Service](/docs/running-as-a-service).
+
+## Persistent per-client scaling
+
+KWin round-trips per-client display scale: it names each session's virtual output per client, so a
+scale you set for one client (150 %, 125 %, …) is reapplied on that client's next connect. See
+[Virtual displays](/docs/virtual-displays).
+
+## Headless session
+
+For a login-less appliance — a box that streams at boot with no graphical login — the host brings up a
+**dedicated headless KWin session** rather than relying on an interactive one. It runs its own
+`kwin --virtual` session (shipped as the `punktfunk-kde-session.service` unit) with permission checks
+relaxed, so it needs none of the interactive grants above.
+
+```sh
+mkdir -p ~/.config/punktfunk
+cp /usr/share/punktfunk/host.env.kde ~/.config/punktfunk/host.env   # Debian/Ubuntu: /usr/share/punktfunk-host/host.env.kde
+
+systemctl --user daemon-reload
+systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-kde-session punktfunk-host
+sudo loginctl enable-linger "$USER"
+```
+
+The session unit brings up headless KWin; the host unit follows it and starts listening. See
+[Running as a Service](/docs/running-as-a-service) for the full headless setup.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **KWin too old:** virtual outputs need KWin **≥ 6.5.6**. Check with `kwin_wayland --version`.
+- **Black screen / no picture:** confirm you're on a Wayland session (not X11) and the NVIDIA GL
+  userspace is installed. More in [Troubleshooting](/docs/troubleshooting).
+

+title: Sway / wlroots
+description: Configure a punktfunk host on a wlroots compositor (Sway, Hyprland).
+---
+
+The wlroots family can host — but **Sway is the only validated path.** The host adds a per-client
+headless output at the client's exact mode and captures it through the xdg-desktop-portal-wlr (xdpw)
+ScreenCast portal, injecting input via the wlroots virtual pointer/keyboard protocols. Hyprland and
+other wlroots compositors are best-effort (see [How it works](#how-it-works) for the caveat).
+
+This is **not a primary target.** It works and is validated live on **sway 1.11** (zero-copy), but it
+sees far less testing than the KDE and GNOME paths — expect rougher edges. If you have a choice,
+[KDE](/docs/kde) or [GNOME](/docs/gnome) are the better-exercised desktops.
+
+This page assumes the package is already installed — see [Arch](/docs/arch), [Ubuntu](/docs/ubuntu),
+or [Fedora](/docs/fedora).
+
+> New here? Read [Security & Safe Use](/docs/security) first — a streaming host is remote control of
+> the machine, so keep it on a trusted LAN or VPN and require pairing.
+
+## host.env
+
+The host auto-detects a wlroots session, so you usually need nothing here. To force the backend, set
+these in `~/.config/punktfunk/host.env`:
+
+```ini
+PUNKTFUNK_COMPOSITOR=wlroots      # aliases: sway, hyprland
+PUNKTFUNK_INPUT_BACKEND=wlr
+PUNKTFUNK_VIDEO_SOURCE=virtual
+PUNKTFUNK_ZEROCOPY=1              # GPU zero-copy capture→encode; auto-falls back to CPU
+```
+
+See [Configuration](/docs/configuration) for the full reference.
+
+## How it works
+
+- **Video** — the host adds a headless output at the client's exact mode with `swaymsg create_output`.
+  This uses Sway's IPC specifically; other wlroots compositors (Hyprland, …) don't expose an
+  equivalent, so virtual-output creation isn't wired up for them yet — Sway is the supported wlroots
+  path today.
+- **Capture** — it captures that output through the **xdg-desktop-portal-wlr (xdpw)** ScreenCast
+  portal. The host writes a managed chooser config so the output pick is automatic — no interactive
+  picker dialog to answer.
+- **Input** — mouse and keyboard are injected via the wlroots **virtual pointer** and **virtual
+  keyboard** protocols.
+
+For how long the virtual output lives, and extend-vs-exclusive topology, see
+[Virtual displays](/docs/virtual-displays).
+
+## Requirements
+
+- A running wlroots session (Sway, Hyprland, …).
+- **xdg-desktop-portal-wlr (xdpw)** installed and running — the host captures through its ScreenCast
+  portal. Without it there is no video.
+
+## Start the host
+
+With the backend selected, start the host from **inside your Sway session**:
+
+```sh
+systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-host
+journalctl --user -u punktfunk-host -f
+```
+
+## Bring up the console and pair
+
+Enable the web console, read its login password, and arm PIN pairing — see

+description: Install the punktfunk host on Ubuntu or Debian with apt.
+---
+
+Install a punktfunk host on **Ubuntu** (Desktop or Server) or **Debian** from the apt registry. This
+page covers the distro-level setup — GPU driver, package, gamepad access. It works with either GNOME
+or KDE; how the host creates its virtual display and injects input is desktop-specific, so pick your
+desktop on the [configure pages](#configure-your-desktop) afterward rather than here.
+
+> New here? Read [Security & Safe Use](/docs/security) first — a streaming host is remote control of
+> the machine, so keep it on a trusted LAN or VPN and require pairing.
+
+## 1. GPU driver
+
+On **NVIDIA**, install the recommended driver:
+
+```sh
+sudo ubuntu-drivers install      # or: sudo apt install nvidia-driver-<version>
+```
+
+Then make sure the **GL/EGL userspace** is present — Wayland compositors on NVIDIA need it, and the
+base driver package doesn't always pull it in. Install the `libnvidia-gl` package matching your
+driver version:
+
+```sh
+sudo apt install libnvidia-gl-<version>   # e.g. libnvidia-gl-550
+```
+
+Reboot, then confirm the driver and KMS modeset:
+
+```sh
+nvidia-smi
+cat /sys/module/nvidia_drm/parameters/modeset   # should print Y
+```
+
+If modeset is not `Y`:
+
+```sh
+echo 'options nvidia-drm modeset=1' | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-drm.conf
+sudo update-initramfs -u && sudo reboot
+```
+
+> **Secure Boot:** on a machine with Secure Boot **enabled**, the NVIDIA kernel module won't load
+> until you enrol its signing key. If `nvidia-smi` reports it can't talk to the driver, run
+> `sudo mokutil --import /var/lib/shim-signed/mok/MOK.der` (set a one-time password), reboot, and
+> choose **Enrol MOK** at the blue screen. Or disable Secure Boot in firmware.
+
+On **AMD/Intel** none of the NVIDIA steps apply. Encode runs through VAAPI on the Mesa stack —
+`mesa-va-drivers` on AMD, `intel-media-driver` on Intel — which your desktop install already provides.
+
+## 2. Install the host (apt)
+
+`punktfunk-host` is published as a `.deb` to the public Gitea apt registry, so the box installs and
+updates with plain `apt`. The registry is public — no auth needed, just trust its signing key:
+
+```sh
+sudo install -d -m 0755 /etc/apt/keyrings
+curl -fsSL https://git.unom.io/api/packages/unom/debian/repository.key \
+  | sudo tee /etc/apt/keyrings/punktfunk.asc >/dev/null
+
+echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/punktfunk.asc] https://git.unom.io/api/packages/unom/debian stable main" \
+  | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/punktfunk.list
+
+sudo apt update
+sudo apt install punktfunk-host
+```
+
+`punktfunk-host` `Recommends` the browser console (`punktfunk-web`), so apt pulls it in by default.
+The desktop *client* (`punktfunk-client`) is a separate package for the machine you stream *to* — not
+installed on a host. The NVIDIA driver is **not** a dependency — you installed it out of band in
+step 1. Later updates are just `sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade`.
+
+The `stable` component above is the stable channel. To track pre-release builds instead, see
+[Release Channels](/docs/channels).
+
+## 3. Grant gamepad access
+
+Virtual gamepads inject through `/dev/uinput`, which is gated by the `input` group. Add yourself and
+re-login so the new group membership takes effect:
+
+```sh
+sudo usermod -aG input "$USER"     # re-login to apply
+```
+
+## Configure your desktop
+
+How the host creates its virtual display and injects input depends on your desktop, not your distro.
+Continue on the page for the desktop you run — it covers your `host.env`, any compositor quirks, and
+starting the host:
+
+- [KDE Plasma (KWin)](/docs/kde)
+- [GNOME (Mutter)](/docs/gnome)
+- [Steam / gamescope](/docs/gamescope)
+- [Sway / wlroots](/docs/sway)
+
+Then bring up [The Web Console](/docs/web-console) to arm pairing and connect your first
+[client](/docs/clients). To run the host at boot — including fully **headless** — see
+[Running as a Service](/docs/running-as-a-service).
+
+## Appendix — build from source
+
+If the apt registry doesn't have a build for your release, or you want to track `main` directly,
+compile the host yourself (no clean updates / no packaged units — you wire those up by hand).
+
+Install the build toolchain and runtime libraries:
+
+```sh
+sudo apt install build-essential pkg-config cmake clang libclang-dev nasm git curl \
+  pipewire pipewire-pulse wireplumber libpipewire-0.3-dev libspa-0.2-dev \
+  libwayland-dev wayland-protocols libxkbcommon-dev libopus-dev \
+  libdrm-dev libgbm-dev libegl-dev libgles-dev mesa-common-dev libva-dev \
+  ffmpeg libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev libswscale-dev libavfilter-dev libavdevice-dev \
+  libnvidia-egl-wayland1 libnvidia-egl-gbm1 libei-dev
+```
+
+Install Rust if you don't have it, then build:
+
+```sh
+curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
+git clone https://git.unom.io/unom/punktfunk.git && cd punktfunk
+cargo build --release -p punktfunk-host
+```
+
+The host binary lands at `target/release/punktfunk-host`. Configure your desktop as above, then run
+it from inside your session:
+
+```sh
+cargo run --release -p punktfunk-host -- serve --gamestream
+```
+
+(The native plane is always on; `--gamestream` adds the Moonlight-compat surface — trusted LAN only.
+Drop it for a secure native-only host.)

+description: Enable the punktfunk browser console, read or change its login password, and arm PIN pairing.
+---
+
+The web console is the browser UI for a punktfunk host — live status, paired devices, and the PIN
+pairing flow. It ships as the **`punktfunk-web`** systemd user unit on Linux and the **`PunktfunkWeb`**
+task on Windows, and serves on **`http://<host-ip>:47992`**. The host's own management API stays
+loopback-only behind it, so the console is the one surface you expose on the LAN.
+
+> New here? Read [Security & Safe Use](/docs/security) first — a streaming host is remote control of
+> the machine, so keep it on a trusted LAN or VPN and require pairing.
+
+## Enable the console
+
+- **Linux packages (apt / RPM / Bazzite):** `punktfunk-host` recommends `punktfunk-web`, so your
+  package manager pulls it in. Enable and start it as your desktop user, then open the URL:
+
+  ```sh
+  systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-web
+  # then browse to http://<host-ip>:47992
+  ```
+
+- **Windows host:** the installer sets up the console, its runtime, and the `PunktfunkWeb` task and
+  starts it at boot. There is nothing to enable — open `http://<this-PC>:47992`.
+
+- **SteamOS host:** the install script builds and starts the console as a user service for you. It
+  prints the URL when it finishes.
+
+## Login password
+
+The console is password-protected. Where that password lives and how you change it depends on the
+host platform.
+
+**Linux packages (apt / RPM / Bazzite).** On first start `punktfunk-web-init` generates a random
+password and saves it to `~/.config/punktfunk/web-password` (as `PUNKTFUNK_UI_PASSWORD=…`). Read it
+back from the init service's journal or straight from the file:
+
+```sh
+journalctl --user -u punktfunk-web-init | sed -n 's/.*password generated: //p'
+sed -n 's/^PUNKTFUNK_UI_PASSWORD=//p' ~/.config/punktfunk/web-password
+```
+
+To set your own, edit that file (`PUNKTFUNK_UI_PASSWORD=<your-password>`) and restart the console:
+`systemctl --user restart punktfunk-web`.
+
+**SteamOS host.** Same idea, but the install script writes the generated password to
+`~/.config/punktfunk/web.env` and prints it at the end of the install run:
+
+```sh
+sed -n 's/^PUNKTFUNK_UI_PASSWORD=//p' ~/.config/punktfunk/web.env
+```
+
+Edit that file and `systemctl --user restart punktfunk-web` to change it.
+
+**Windows host.** You choose the password during install — a secure random default is pre-filled and
+shown again on the installer's final page. It's stored in `%ProgramData%\punktfunk\web-password` (as
+`PUNKTFUNK_UI_PASSWORD=…`), readable only by Administrators and SYSTEM. To change it, edit the file
+and restart the task in an **elevated** PowerShell:
+
+```powershell
+notepad "$env:ProgramData\punktfunk\web-password"   # set PUNKTFUNK_UI_PASSWORD=<your-password>
+schtasks /End /TN PunktfunkWeb; schtasks /Run /TN PunktfunkWeb

+
+## Arm pairing
+
+The host **requires PIN pairing** by default (secure on a LAN). To connect the first time, open the
+console, log in, and go to **Devices → arm pairing**. The host displays a 4-digit PIN — enter it on
