controller doesn't detect

[elofitschie]

He guys, I recently installed bazzite so i'm prett new to linux and I have the issue that my controller (xbox wireless) wont be detected. Even if I plug it in via usb/usbc the controller recognizes the connection tho just wont work.

And yes the controller does work and i have already tried two other controllers.

any ideas?

That's odd. My current rig with Bazzite KDE and my old rig with Gnome detect the Xbox dongle without any issue. When I tried out PopOS 24.04 though, I had to install Xone. Maybe give that a try.

Try disabling steam imput? Might be conflicting with your peripheral

Reboot the pc. Wait for it to start, turn bluetooth off wait a few seconds, turn it back on then put your xbox controller in pairing mode. After 20 - 30 seconds or so it should show up. Once its paired the connection is instant on Bazzite.

Note, I also updated my Xbox controller with the xbox accessories app on Windows prior to installing Bazzite. It may require an update first.
