I’ve been playing more demanding games on my #VoidLinux Hack #SteamMachine. There is a way to get #Steam to recognize all the buttons and gyro of a #FlydigiApex5. Add

KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="37d7", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2501", MODE="0666"

to `/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-steam-input.rules`, then reboot. You need Windows to enable the feature, but then it works on Linux. Source: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/12534

Me: I shouldn’t buy new gamepads unless they are a clear and significant improvement over the ones I already own. For example, the only reason to upgrade the Apex 4 would be if they added more programmable buttons or put the back buttons in a vertical configuration.

I bought a silly thing so you don’t have to. Sometimes you just want to buy a silly thing so you don’t have to, you know? So I did so you don’t have to.

I’m not sure what game I’m going to test it with, since most games work well with regular gamepads… when I do, I’ll let you know. If you have any questions/suggestions/accusations, feel free.

Not even sure what hashtags to add…

This is huge: an official wireless pad specifically designed for #Steam, the closest thing we'll get to a #SteamController - this one includes two front buttons to change profiles, two back buttons for macros, and most importantly it also includes a #gyroscope for #GyroGaming. hori.jp/products/hpc/hpc-055/

Broke out my Steam controller again. I need to get used to it again. Really tired of fighting with D-Pads and my inability to feel them. Also going to try to do more #gyrogaming with it. Accessibility, right?
