If you start Steam such way (with Gamescope) - you will loose ability to make screenshots; solution: start Gamescope in another terminal and attach into it:

```
terminalA ~ $ conty gamescope -h 1920 -H 1920
terminalB ~ $ DISPLAY=:1 conty steam
```
`DISPLAY=:1` can have another number - get it from the `terminalA` output:
