    # Display server detection
    if [ -n "$WAYLAND_DISPLAY" ]; then
        DISPLAY_SERVER="wayland"
    elif [ -n "$DISPLAY" ]; then
        DISPLAY_SERVER="x11"
    fi
    
    # Desktop environment detection
    if [ -n "$XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP" ]; then
        DESKTOP_ENV="$XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP"
    fi
    
    # GPU detection and driver verification
    if command -v lspci &> /dev/null; then
        GPU_INFO=$(lspci 2>/dev/null | grep -iE "VGA|3D" | head -1)
        # GPU vendor detection and driver status checks
    fi
}

2. Windows 11 Native Installation

File: scripts/install-deps-windows.ps1

Code Enhancements:

# New Windows 11 detection function
function Get-Windows11Info {
    $os = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_OperatingSystem
    $build = $os.BuildNumber
    
    $w11Features = @{
        IsWindows11 = $build -ge 22000
        DisplayScale = Get-WindowsDisplayScale
        GPUInfo = Get-WindowsGPUInfo
        SupportsDirectX12 = Test-DirectX12Support
    }
    return $w11Features
}

# Native Windows 11 installation
function Install-Windows11Native {
    Write-Host "🖥️  Installing for Windows 11 (Native - No WSL Required)..."
    # Comprehensive dependency installation with GPU optimization
}

3. Cross-Platform GUI Detection System

File: internal/utils/gui_detection.go

New Features Added:

• Unified GUI Environment Detection: Single interface for all platforms
• Platform-Specific Optimizations: Tailored handling per OS
• Adaptive Window Sizing: Environment-aware window dimensions
• Module-Specific Sizing: Different sizes for different modules
• GPU Acceleration Logic: Intelligent hardware acceleration decisions

Code Structure:

type GUIEnvironment struct {
    DisplayServer    string  // "x11", "wayland", "windows", "darwin"
    DesktopEnvironment string  // "gnome", "kde", "xfce", "windows11", "macos"
    ScaleFactor      float64 // Display scaling factor
    PrimaryMonitor   MonitorInfo
    HasCompositing  bool
    GPUInfo         GPUInfo
}

func DetectGUIEnvironment() GUIEnvironment
func (env GUIEnvironment) GetOptimalWindowSize(minWidth, minHeight int) fyne.Size
func (env GUIEnvironment) GetModuleSpecificSize(moduleID string) fyne.Size

4. Enhanced Main Application

File: main.go

Integration Features:

• GUI Environment Integration: Uses new detection system
• Adaptive Window Sizing: Intelligent window dimension selection
• Platform Logging: Detailed environment detection logging
• Responsive Layout: Module-specific size optimization

Code Integration:

// Enhanced cross-platform GUI detection and window sizing
guiEnv := guitutils.DetectGUIEnvironment()
logging.Debug(logging.CatUI, "detected GUI environment: %s", guiEnv.String())

// Adaptive window sizing
optimalSize := guiEnv.GetOptimalWindowSize(800, 600)
w.Resize(optimalSize)

5. Comprehensive Testing Framework

File: scripts/test-cross-platform.sh

Test Capabilities:

• Platform-Specific Testing: Arch Linux and Windows 11 validation
• GUI Detection Testing: Code compilation and functionality
• Installation Script Testing: Enhanced feature verification
• Dependency Validation: Core component testing

Test Functions:

test_arch_linux()      # Arch Linux support validation
test_windows_11()       # Windows 11 support validation  
test_gui_detection()     # GUI environment testing
test_install_scripts()    # Installation script validation
generate_report()         # Comprehensive test reporting
