Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Relevant collected information follows:

Computer Information: Manufacturer: LENOVO Model: 20UW0012US Form Factor: Laptop No Touch Input Detected

This is a thinkpad X12 detachable, with perfectly working touch input. I pretty much only play touch games on it. May be related to #5881

Notably the survey has also failed to detect the nvme ssd (same as #8412)

Also I am using Wayland primarily, but only see information on X being collected. I did not find any issues related to this.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

1. Thinkpad X12 Detachable w/ Fedora Workstation 36 on Wayland
2. Participate in Valve Hardware Survey

Hello @pippaine, there's no value in fragmenting the discussion of #5881 or #8412 over multiple issue reports. Feel free to add your experience to those older issue reports.

When using a Wayland-based user session, the Steam client is being run with XWayland, and that version can be useful for troubleshooting some issues. Let's use this issue report as a feature request to add Wayland-based user session detection.
