I'm surprised by the reviews, it has got a decent 85% [External Link] in my favorite PC games magazine. Metacritic has 73 [External Link].

Quoting: EikeOf course, that's a biased top ten. League of Legends e. g. would be in there if it would be on Steam. But it's still great.

This is not about games outside of Steam though, this is directly looking at Steam.

Right. It's not like there's anything wrong with the article, it's just that nobody should confuse that with
"8 out of the 10 current most popular games support Linux".

Quoting: CreakWow that was exactly it! I can play Broforce with a controller now!

Cool!

Quoting: CreakWhy Fedora and Debian doesn't have this configuration by default? (Well I don't really know the udev syntax, so maybe turning everything with uinput in 0666 isn't good... I mean it's literally written "666" :D)

I'm not sure it's the safe way to go, I just know it's a working way.
As far as I understood, Steam Controller needs to have write access to the input device so it can emulate. I'd be happy to hear if someone has a more closed way to make it work, but until then, I'm surely using this one.

Quoting: CreakDo you see something wrong?

Oops, found that my controller wasn't working after my reinstallation of Debian.
Good for you, this way I needed to recheck what I had done. :)

I had to change my udev rule to:
# Valve USB devices
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="28de", MODE="0666"
# Steam Controller udev write access
KERNEL=="uinput", MODE="0666"
#KERNEL=="uinput", SUBSYSTEM=="misc", TAG+="uaccess"
# HTC Vive HID Sensor naming and permissioning
KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0bb4", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2c87", MODE="0666"

... and I've put uinput into the list of modules loaded at start time.
That's in /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf on my system.

If you happen to own Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime (everybody should! ;o) ), it's a good test.
It greets either with "Press enter" - you're not there yet - or with "press (A)" - then you're fine.

Quoting: CreakIt's really weird because the controller configurations are dedicated to Broforce, so it definitely seems to be a problem coming from my PC, but I really don't know why. Maybe Fedora 23 is just really bad at this? Maybe it's a problem with GNOME Shell?

I vaguely remember and unfortunately I didn't write it down anywhere apparently...
I had to do some modprobe to make the gamepad emulation work. "modprobe uinput" maybe?

Quoting: fagnerlnThis game has single player, and local coop. So, longevity isn't a problem.

I don't think single player is the heart of the game.
And local co-op, well, I could ask my wife, but...

So I guess if I'll play it, it's all about showing GOL how bad people in the country of the world football champion can play. ;)
