3. The script creates a folder called ~/1RefreshRateUnlocker that contains additional helper scripts. Do not delete this folder!
4. The script checks the gamescope-session every startup if it needs to be "patched" and applies the patch if needed.
5. There is an uninstall script if end-user wants to revert any changes made.
6. Doesn't rely on systemd service and will likely survive on branch changes / SteamOS updates.

## Prerequisites for SteamOS
1. sudo password should already be set by the end user. If sudo password is not yet set, the script will ask to set it up.
