The session-aware selector drives a KWin virtual output at the client's
resolution when the Bazzite box is in KDE Desktop Mode — validated live. But a
normal KDE login withholds two things the headless host needs:
1. KWIN_WAYLAND_NO_PERMISSION_CHECKS=1 — so KWin exposes the privileged
zkde_screencast virtual-output protocol to an external client.
2. the kde-authorized RemoteDesktop grant — so libei input auto-approves
instead of popping a dialog a headless host can't answer.
Add packaging/bazzite/kde-desktop-setup.sh (idempotent, no root): writes the
environment.d KWIN drop-in and seeds the grant DB (shipped at
/usr/share/punktfunk/headless/kde-authorized) into ~/.local/share/flatpak/db/,
restarting the portal chain. Ship it via the RPM at
/usr/share/punktfunk/bazzite/ and document it in the Bazzite README (new §6.5).
Gaming Mode needs none of this (auto-attach).

Bazzite/SteamOS boxes flip between Steam Gaming Mode (gamescope) and a
KDE/GNOME desktop. The host statically read PUNKTFUNK_COMPOSITOR /
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP once, so switching to Desktop Mode failed the stream, and
the gamescope managed-session path stopped+relaunched the autologin per connect
— leaking GPU context on F44 (reconnect → black screen).
Replace the static read with a runtime probe of the live session and route each
connect to the right backend, churn-free:
- vdisplay::detect_active_session() probes /proc for the running compositor of
our uid (gamescope|kwin_wayland|gnome-shell|sway, desktop outranks a leftover
gamescope) + scans the runtime dir for the live wayland-* socket. Returns an
ActiveKind + the SessionEnv (WAYLAND_DISPLAY/XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/DBUS/
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP) that targets it.
- apply_session_env() writes that into the process env per connect (host serves
one session at a time), so every backend (capture + input) opens against the
live session; apply_input_env() points input at the matching backend and
selects gamescope ATTACH (no managed restart) unless PUNKTFUNK_GAMESCOPE_MANAGED.
- resolve_compositor() (native path) auto-detects + applies; explicit
PUNKTFUNK_COMPOSITOR still wins (legacy/CI/forcing). detect() is now
active-aware for the GameStream/mgmt callers too.
- Bazzite host.env drops the static gamescope force; documents auto-detection
+ the optional overrides.
Result: Desktop Mode → KWin/Mutter virtual output at the client's mode
(churn-free, the reliable path); Gaming Mode → attach to the running gamescope
(no SIGSEGV/GPU leak on reconnect). Compiles + clippy-clean; 78 host tests pass.
Live validation on the Bazzite box pending (box offline).

On Bazzite (atomic rpm-ostree) `sudo usermod -aG input $USER` doesn't stick —
/etc/group is managed declaratively, so the change is dropped or reverted on
the next update. The supported path is the `ujust add-user-to-input-group`
recipe, which edits the group the immutable-OS-correct way. Update the bazzite
README + the packaging quickstart + the troubleshooting note (which also now
points at the host's "virtual gamepad/DualSense created" vs "creation failed"
log as the unambiguous signal).

A step-by-step walkthrough for running the host on Bazzite (the immutable
Fedora-Atomic gaming distro): the two install paths (rpm-ostree layering vs the
bootc image), udev + the `input` group, host.env knobs (gamescope-default), the
systemd --user service, firewall ports, verification, and troubleshooting — all
grounded in the packaging/ files. Flags the operator-run COPR, the loopback-only
mgmt port, and that the bundled unit runs the GameStream `serve` host (not m3-host).

Roadmap #3 (install on other devices). Bazzite already ships gamescope + PipeWire + the
NVIDIA stack, so the host slots in with minimal new deps (ffmpeg-libs from RPM Fusion + opus
+ libei).
- packaging/rpm/punktfunk.spec — builds punktfunk-host from source (cargo), installs the
binary + udev rule + systemd user unit + headless helpers; Requires/Recommends mapped from
the Ubuntu bootstrap deps to Fedora.
- packaging/bootc/Containerfile — layer punktfunk into a bazzite-nvidia bootc image for
atomic, image-based installs.
- packaging/bazzite/host.env — gamescope-default appliance config (spawned per session).
- packaging/copr/ + packaging/README.md — COPR build-from-SCM settings + install docs
(rpm-ostree and bootc paths), and why not Flatpak.
- LICENSE-MIT + LICENSE-APACHE — materialize the declared `MIT OR Apache-2.0` (was unfiled);
the RPM ships them.
Not buildable on the Ubuntu dev box (no rpm tooling) — the COPR/Fedora build is operator-run;
all spec-referenced files verified present and the cargo build is green.
