Minimal Xsession for Steam Big Picture
A minimal Xsession for Steam Big Picture. Only Steam in Big Picture mode and a window manager; nothing more, nothing less.
Clone the repository and run the install script as root.
git clone https://github.com/solbero/steam-session.git
cd steam-session
chmod +x ./install.sh
sudo ./install.sh --install
Then log out of your current session and select the Steam session in your display manager.
You must have these dependencies installed for Steam Session to function:
- openbox: window manager
- xset: disabling the screensaver and screen energy saving mode
- unclutter: hiding the mouse cursor
- steam: displaying and playing games
To get a console-like experience, enable autologin in your display manager.
How to enable auto login for:
sudo ./install -i | --install
sudo ./install -r | --remove
