Given the general tone, I actually assumed this was deliberate in the original.

Me too, but those here say something else:

I hope he's wrong with expecting that Valve does not have huge reasons to make more hardware when the experts are doing it already...

A "harming, original story" eh?

@Liam: I nominate this the site's greatest typo in history!

Sad for the dev, and I wish him to be at peace whatever is happening to him. CoreCtrl is such a great tool. Exactly the kind of software that make me feel happy to use linux. Hopefully someone will get into it and continue the project in one form or another.

I expect this to be taken over, it is interesting enough. Which would be exactly the course of action that makes me feel happy to use open source. ;)

Second pet peeve: no option to disable creepy playtime tracking. For some weird reason disabling the playtime sync is deemed sufficient.

Hmm... Isn't playtime recording a good thing, for some self-insights?

Personally I've been using a xbox one controller connected via usb for some time now and have had no problems what so ever. Tried a few cheaper controllers over the time but find the xbox one does the job well. If or when the time comes to find a new controller I may take a look at the 8BItDO one but currently very happy with what i have.

The company's name sounds soo appropriate for an 80sJoystickman though! :grin:

(Me being another 80s joystick man.)

"…need Windows…" hard pass on that. It was looking great up until that. I figure at least the non-addressable buttons could be fixed with a firmware update… maybe.

Is it a very strange exception that I think the controller should work just fine without firmware updates (but only driver updates)?

Myself, I'm a M & K guy. I do own a Xbox 360 and a Steam Controller. But due to increasing controller needs, just yesterday two 8BitDo Ultimate 2C wired controllers arrived. (I was surprised Xbox 360 controller is not sold anymore - now I got two new controllers for less than the price of one of those!) I read a very positive review and they do feel quite good! At first they didn't work in Minecraft OOTB, but with a quick little kernel upgrade (thanks, Debian backports!), I'm fine and set.

Is it not reasonable to expect this SteamOS Beta branch, that's in development to support other devices, to leave the Beta state simultaneously with this Lenovo device release ? It can only make sense for the OS to be in a Stable state when the device comes out, right ?

I could imagine all three variants: simultaneously (IMHO the least likely), SteamOS first, device first. I mean... there's already a device running SteamOS without it being "released", right? And Lenovo won't wait until Valve declares some general readiness,
