Hi, I’ve recently discovered that steam client on linux requires the XTEST extension to handle input from controller. However, I can not enable XTEST on gdm no matter what I’ve done. Switch to lightdm solves it instanly but I prefer gdm.

Could you provide some hint how to debug it and have you experienced that before? Thank you very much!

I am using Arch Linux with Gnome and Wayland.

    Thank you for all your help! I’ve finally found out what I did wrong. Gnome has it own way to enable/disable an extension which I followed here because of another bug. It is so annoying I am thinking about switching to lightdm permantly.

    Thank you very much once again!
