However, due to the nature of how SteamOS is setup (multi-user/separate compositor), this is not yet worked into SteamOS itself. I have no idea if you start the /usr/share/applications/Steam client as user 'steam', if it would work or not. Not ideal of course. Not sure if the example would even work with Steam running in the compositor on another TTY line (I believe desktop mode is 7, SteamOS BPM is 8).\r\n\r\nSomething like this in desktop mode:\r\n```\r\nsudo -u steam '/usr/bin/steam'\r\n```"}}
