IIUC, their solution is to run a script every time one wants to launch a game with the desired controller calibration ^[1]; this does not feel ideal to me.

I’ve had issues with controller drift in Cairn ^[2][1].

What tool do you use to accomplish that?

[…] I love your use of references.

Thank you! 😘

[…] you can use Steam’s controller settings to expand the dead zones. […]

I tried this, but I can’t get it to work: to use steam’s deadzone control, I need to enable Steam Input ^[2], but when I do that, my controller no longer works in games ^[1].

[…] Make sure the kcm-joystick package is installed for KDE.

On Arch Linux ^[1], that package doesn’t appear to exist ^[2].

What distro are you on? […]

Arch Linux ^[1].

My main server runs Ubuntu Server (I’m thinking about switching it to Debian), and my laptop and desktop both run Arch Linux. Generally, I pick whatever I think is best for the given usecase — things like stability, package availability, documentation, security, etc. are considered.

Could you elaborate on what you mean? 🙂

Do you have some examples? 🙂

Thank you for sharing! I have added your link to the body of my post.

[…]There will be alteration.[…]

I’m not claiming that there wouldn’t be some form of alteration — I’m just seeking the minimum amount of alterations as is pragmatically possible (ie avoiding something to this extent ^[1]).

[…] Why would you WANT interlaced video?

I want the freedom to choose the dienterlacing technique ^[1] when I deinterlace.

The fact that you think you need the option at all is enough. […]

Could you clarify what you mean? I’m not sure I follow.

How come?

TikTok To Be Sold To Trump’s Right Wing Billionaire Buddies And Converted Into A Propaganda Mill ^[1.1]

The title feels misinformative to me given, the following from the article:

[…] Trump insiders claim to be zeroing in on a deal that would sell 80% of TikTok’s U.S. assets to […] ^[1.2]

To me, the title infers that TikTok is being sold with certainty, whereas the content of the article sates that a deal has yet to even be reached.

[…] Might be an older issue?

For reference, the source that I cited was a report from last month ^[1]. Also, I personally verified that, in Hollow Knight, controller rumble worked with Proton enabled, and didn’t work with it disabled.

I never had an issue on hollow knight. Both on PC Linux and steamdeck. […]

I’m not sure what the exact replication bounds are for the bug; maybe your configuration simply doesn’t experience the issue? Or perhaps you inadvertently configured Steam to force proton somewhere?

Despite that, the game has been extremely stable for me so far. I currently have about 8 hours of playtime, and this controller thing has been pretty much the only bug/issue that I’ve encountered.
