Hey everyone!
I’ve tried digging on the web, GitHub and last resort asking the stupid robots (Claude) and I can’t figure this one out.
When I’m booted into Bazzite Gamescope (bazzite-deck) if I use my Steam Controller, the color looks fine, as soon as I use the trackpad or my mouse, I’ll see a reddish tint to the colors. It’s like it gets warmer and then when I switch back to controller it’s normal again. Doesn’t happen in Desktop mode.
I noticed initially when I first built my BC-250, internet suggested turning off HDR because I’m using a passive DisplayPort to HDMI adapter. This seemed to work and I hadn’t noticed it since. Then I booted up and ran updates the other day and noticed it’s back. Really frustrating if I want to play a RTS with my Steam Controller, color changes every time I use the mouse.
I found some stale issues on GitHub and they all suggest turning on Use Native Color Temperature, but this doesn’t make a difference for me.
Curious if anyone else has experienced similar issues?
- BC-250
- LG CX
- JSAUX DP to HDMI Adapter
- Steam Controller (2026)
- Logitech Mouse
- Bazzite (version 44, stable, bazzite-deck)
Let me know if I can share any additional information
Have you tried toggling the HDR setting, saving the change, then toggling it back? It’s possible the update overwrote the setting you had without changing the setting in the UI.
