Title: Manjaro Steam problems
I got a new Dell Laptop that I installed Manjaro Xfce 64 bit on. I updated it today and did the recommended replacement of the use rules. But my Steam controller and my brother's ps4 controller can't work properly in big picture mode or in some games. Games like Bastion and Skullgirls work fine, but Rocket League and Shovel Knight have fucked up or incomplete controls. I have copies of the original idea rules on my flash drive in case I should revert back. I've modified both rules and tried them out several times, but I can't get my controller to stop controlling my mouse or work with all my games. Skullgirls and Bastion(probably Transistor, too since it's made by the people who made Bastion) are the only unaffected games. I also deleted the xf86-input-joystick package somewhere during all this, not that there's a difference without it.

Thanks. The controllers started working when I connected to the wifi with then connected and chose configurations for them from BPM.
