Not new to Linux but just build a PC (Linux mint) so new to Linux gaming. How do I get a similar function to my PS5 so plugging headphones into the controller switches the audio? I play a lot at night and not trying to wake the fam. I have a Xbox one and PS4 controller for the PC.
Fair; I know I didn’t put adaptive in there, but that is what I meant when I said the triggers don’t work. And how do you get the touchpad to work? I can get the buttons on it to work, but I haven’t gotten the mouse-like touch input to actually work, despite being able to map it. I’d love to be able to control the desktop with it instead of the sticks.
Yes, I understood, but I wanted to clarify for the sake of other readers who wouldn’t. Most people who don’t have a DualSense don’t know about its adaptive triggers, since they’re not a common feature on game controllers and not used by most games.
On the desktop, I didn’t have to do a thing. It was automatically recognized when I connected the device, and I could move the mouse pointer and click right away. (I ended up disabling it in Xfce, because it sometimes got in my way.)
In Steam, I usually remap areas of it to produce keyboard events (useful in Elite Dangerous), but I think it can also be mapped as a mouse. I haven’t fiddled with Steam Input’s many options in a while.
