Linux Getting Rumble Support For Latest Microsoft Xbox Controllers

[Termy]

Since time, I'm still waiting for wireless support for my Xbox One Elite serie 1... I wonder if I can still dream or if one day it will eventually happen.

Does xpadneo not support this?

Yes, this is only for bluetooth (HID driver). xpad driver is not affected by this issue.

Oh, so that's why rumble on my Xbox Series X controller has been acting up on my Steam Deck, I assume?

It's like it goes haywire, even though it works ok on Windows, when playing Dirt Rally 2.0.

is this for connecting via bluetooth?

It would be nice if at some point the work of the xone driver was added to the kernel. That gives full compatibility for the wireless dongle (which is a bit more reliable than Bluetooth), and even provides audio output support which is something that you don't even get out of Windows.

Huh, I guess I didn't have this issue because I never updated mine. It would be great if they get the audio jack working too in the future.

But can you update firmware from linux?
I tried to use the wireless controller on Linux, encountered an issue, internet said you have to update the firmware, and i had to use windows for that. I felt so dirty that day.

Nice collaboration!

Surprising given Google's apparent institutional dislike of Microsoft.

Just use Xpadneo
