# Troubleshooting
A few common issues and fixes when using W.O.P.R.
---
## Gamescope fails to start
**Symptoms**
- You see “ERROR: Gamescope failed to start!”
- Gaming Mode exits immediately after the spinner
**Things to check**
1. Run `gamescope --help` from a terminal to confirm it is installed.
2. Make sure your GPU has working Vulkan support:
- `vulkaninfo | less` (from `vulkan-tools`)
3. Confirm youre on a supported GPU driver:
- NVIDIA: `nvidia`, `nvidia-dkms`, or `nvidia-open-dkms`
- AMD: `amdgpu` with `vulkan-radeon`
- Intel / Arc: recent Mesa recommended
Re-run `./WOPR.sh` to let it re-check dependencies if needed.

## Keybinds dont work
**Symptoms**
- `SUPER`+`SHIFT`+`S` does nothing
**Checks**
1. Open your Hypr config (e.g. `~/.config/hypr/bindings.conf`).
2. Look for the block:
```ini
# Gaming Mode bindings - added by installation script
...
# End Gaming Mode bindings
3. Restart Hyprland or reload config: hyprctl reload.
If you use a custom binding file layout, make sure the file W.O.P.R. edited is actually included from your main Hypr config.
Steam opens but not in Big Picture
Check ~/.gaming-mode.conf:
STEAM_LAUNCH_MODE=bigpicture
Only two modes are currently supported:
• bigpicture (default)
• gamepadui
Performance tweaks dont seem to apply
Ensure you allowed W.O.P.R. to create the performance udev rules:
• Check for /etc/udev/rules.d/99-gaming-performance.rules.
If you skipped this during installation:
1. Re-run ./WOPR.sh.
2. When prompted about passwordless performance controls, answer Y.
3. Reboot or log out/in to let udev rules take effect.
Intel Arc GTK apps look broken
If you skipped the Intel Arc workaround during install you can run ./WOPR.sh again and accept the Intel Arc GTK4 rendering fix prompt, or manually set:
GSK_RENDERER=gl
in an environment file under /etc/environment.d/ or ~/.config/environment.d/.
If you hit something else, please open an issue with:
• Distro + kernel
• GPU model
• Output of ./WOPR.sh (or at least the last 3040 lines)
• Any relevant Hypr config fragments
