I still don't get why it is a nixosModule instead of a homeManager one tho. I don’t use home manager so I do appreciate the nixos module lol | 04:14:33 |
| @haysidney:matrix.org | In reply to @sigmasquadron:matrix.org
personally I prefer the NixOS option, since the bwrap sandbox on flatpak has been known to break some games in the past. Yeah, bubblewrap is causing me some problems with symlinks in my home directory. I’m sticking with the nixos one for now | 04:16:41 |
|  @hasnep:matrix.org joined the room. | 08:52:00 |
 @sigmasquadron:matrix.org | That’s intended though. The sandbox can’t access the linked file/directory if it doesn’t have permissions to do so. | 10:20:33 |

| @haysidney:matrix.org | I didn’t have ~/.var or ~/.local/share/flatpak in the list of directories it can access, but it was trying to clobber them anyway. | 19:56:22 |
 K900 | Are you trying to ... run flatpak inside of another bubblewrap sandbox? | 19:56:41 |
| K900 | Because yeah that's never going to work | 19:56:45 |
| K900 | It's not designed to do that | 19:56:48 |
| @haysidney:matrix.org | Impermanence. | 19:56:54 |
| @haysidney:matrix.org | Linked to my persistent storage | 19:57:03 |
| @haysidney:matrix.org | Those directories were symlinked to my persistent storage but steam’s bubblewrap wanted to fuse mount over the symlinks for some reason | 19:58:18 |
| @haysidney:matrix.org | It does the same sort of thing with Music/Pictures/Videos folders too. | 20:00:14 |
| @haysidney:matrix.org | But yeah, for my use case the steam flatpak is kinda broken because of that. If I convert ~/.var and ~/.local/share/flatpak to fuse mounts instead of symlinks it works, but I’m not a huge fan of fuse. I wish it just didn’t mess with my symlinks and/or gave me an option to choose where it points to so I could point it at my persistent storage | 20:09:25 |
| @haysidney:matrix.org | I’m not a flatpak expert tho. Idk what magic flatpak is trying to pull off under the hood. | 20:13:20 |

| littlejohn (jcray) | hey, does anyone here own an xbox elite controller? I am having trouble getting the right driver/configuration. I used a driver called xow that successfully detected the controller, but I couldn't get it to detect the extra paddle buttons on the bottom, as it was treating it as a standard xbox controller | 03:01:42 |
| K900 | AFAIK those extra paddles are handled by firmware | 07:31:43 |
| K900 | And can't actually be mapped as separate inputs | 07:31:51 |
| littlejohn (jcray) | oh, I mean they weren't detected as inputs at all. normally they should be equivalent to A,B,X,Y | 16:00:09 |

Linux's default xpaddoes support it since 6.1. xpadneo supports them too. | 09:55:17 |
