Quoting: EagleDeltaI found the source: https://github.com/Ryochan7/sc-controller [External Link]

Thanks!
I believe it's the same Python 3 fork (not 100% sure, though), but there is a more up-to-date version in the repository you've found.

Quoting: EagleDeltaMy main point being is that even with a Snap and AppImage, I either can't get it to run on Pop!_OS 20.10 or, when it does, it can't detect the controller. And I can't install the package via PPA as it requires Python 2 dependencies that are no longer included since Pop!_OS 20.04

Apparently there is a Python 3 fork of this software. They mention it in this thread [External Link].
I tried that AppImage on Ubuntu, EndeavourOS and Fedora, and it not only runs, but also detects my Steam Controller.
Keep in mind, though, that I wasn't able to find the source code of the aforementioned Python 3 fork on GitHub, so I don't really know where it comes from.

Yes, it works with both.

Thanks for the confirmation!

This seems to be a good time to get acquainted with this classic Bethesda game.

Great news! I love my Steam Controller so much. Even though I mainly use it in Steam, it's very nice to be able to use it for other games.
Does anyone know if it works with Stadia or GeForce NOW?

Quoting: mylkacould it be, that mangohud doesnt work for all games?

It seems to be the case.
I've tried several games, and it behaves very differently.
Mass Effect 2 - works with just mangohud %command%.
The Witcher: Enhanced Edition - doesn't work at all (even with PRESSURE_VESSEL_FILESYSTEMS_RO pointing to MangHud config file).
The Elder Scrolls Online - works with PRESSURE_VESSEL_FILESYSTEMS_RO specified, but hangs on the login screen.
I'm sticking with 5.0-10 for MangoHud for now.

I can confirm that MangoHud works after adding PRESSURE_VESSEL_FILESYSTEMS_RO="/home/your_user_name/.config/MangoHud/MangoHud.conf" mangohud %command to the launch options.
Be sure to double check the path to MangoHud configuration file.
I haven't tried vkBasalt yet, but I hope it works too.

I've been using Solus for a couple of years now, and I'm very satisfied with it.
I have it installed on my main work laptop alongside Kubuntu and Fedora (GNOME), and I must say that it is definitely the fastest and the most responsive one of the three OS.
Gaming on Solus is also a very pleasant experience. I had very few problems running both native and Proton games.
The only downside, I'd say, is Solus' own eopkg system, which means you have to build some pieces of software from the source code, but most of the commonly used software is in the repository.
Budgie is a great desktop environment too. I used to have Manjaro with Budgie (installed via Architect) for some time, and, even though it isn't officially supported, it actually gave me less headache than, say, the KDE Plasma version.
I'm happy to see both Solus and Budgie getting improved!

"Special bonus for RPGs" - makes a lot of sense.
Being a big RPG player myself lack of role-playing games on Stadia is one of the reasons I ignored it after finishing the two month test period.
Sure, the upcoming Cyberpunk 2077 and Baldur's Gate 3 should help, but still there are too few offline RPGs in their library.
Would be nice to seem more strategy games there too. Though, I understand that, sadly, it is currently a niche genre...

I don't think I can ever thank Beamdog enough for keep those classic CRPGs alive and bringing them to Linux among other platforms.
It's a real pity Icewind Dale 2 source code is lost. Otherwise, I'd have a complete collection. :happy:
