 @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | * oh | 20:01:34 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | oh I see, I pessimistically did a find on /run/current-system/kernel-modules/ to see if such a module existed | 20:02:59 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | and it didn't | 20:03:02 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | but I didn't use find -L so it didn't look through links | 20:03:11 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | hm, modprobe xpad and it's still not working | 20:04:06 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | like, I'm connected to it with bluetooth, but steam's controller test isn't working, and the controller's light is still flashing | 20:04:37 |
 K900 | That sounds sus | 20:04:48 |
| K900 | Check bluez logs maybe | 20:05:13 |
| K900 | Also, what kernel? | 20:05:15 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | 6.6.11 | 20:05:32 |
| K900 | I think they have multiple revisions of those things and you might need a pretty recent xpad for the latest one | 20:05:32 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | In reply to @k900:0upti.me
I think they have multiple revisions of those things and you might need a pretty recent xpad for the latest one I mean, 6.6.11 is pretty gosh darn recent, isn't it? | 20:16:51 |
| K900 | Yeah | 20:16:54 |
| K900 | So it's probably not that | 20:16:58 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Well, I went ahead and updated the firmware on it | 20:17:53 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Maybe that was a bad idea | 20:17:59 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | We'll see if it works when Linux comes back up | 20:18:11 |
| K900 | Wait those have firmware? | 20:18:50 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | apparently? | 20:21:33 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | I mean, are you really surprised? | 20:21:37 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | it's a thing with a microcontroller | 20:21:43 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | but yea, updating the firmware on the controller via the "Xbox Accessories" app on windows got it working on linux now | 20:22:35 |
| K900 | Huh | 20:22:55 |
| K900 | I should check mine then lol | 20:22:58 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | awesome, yea now it works great | 20:25:03 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | I was surprised it's powered by AA batteries | 20:25:24 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | if you put rechargeable ones in there, is it able to charge those with the USB C port? | 20:25:39 |
| K900 | I don't think so | 20:26:31 |
| K900 | But I've never actually looked into it | 20:26:37 |
| K900 | I have a giant pile of ikealoops | 20:26:42 |
