In game publishing terms, xmas qualifies as "soon." :D

Just remembered - there's also a recent regression [External Link] in the sony hid driver.

If you're using an affected kernel (check /var/log/syslog for error messages marked "sony"), this may be hitting you.

Quoting: Armand RaynalMy favorite controller, the Sixaxis/dualshock 3, is not supported either on SteamOS or on big picture on windows(expect if i use DS3 tool).

Eh? I'm using the dualshock 3 as my primary gamepad.

Over USB, it Just Works™. Via bluetooth, you do have to use sixad (I'm using a PPA [External Link]), but that's because the gamepad itself doesn't actually use the standard bluetooth stack.

I made a little utility [External Link] for switching back and forth from sixad to "normal" bluetooth operating mode - you're welcome to try it.

I will of course contribute everything gathered to https://github.com/gabomdq/SDL_GameControllerDB [External Link] as well. :)

In what way does

it is one of our top priorities on the list of things to fix

translate to

no hope of linux fixes

When debugging software, it can be very difficult and time-consuming to even reproduce a problem, no matter how many other people are experiencing it. The devs say it's one of their top priorities to fix - let's give them a chance to fix it, instead of posting articles with inaccurate, inflammatory titles.

[edit] Thank you for fixing the title.
