Thinking of getting the 2.4ghz 8bitdo controller do away with Bluetooth and hopefully stop the duplicate controller issue which must be a steamos issue not tested on my steam deck though

Really just wish there was a steam controller 2 with same inputs as the deck though

closest atm is modded dualsense and even that is not perfect :/

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:30 PM

kingkong 3 max would get very close though, no touchpad

BT version has hal effect sensors if you care about that
also there is beta firmware for the dongle for the BT version to let you use xinput and switch input on the dongle too (on the bt model, which does come with dongle in the dock), bt mode will always be switch mode

Chimeraos had the gpu and cpu wattage working right in the overlay so must be a fix for it

All 3 holo iso, chimera os and bazzite have duplicate controller issue with switch pro controller, holo iso no cpu wattage and also other bugs, chimera cpu and gpu wattage all good but hate the desktop mode interface, bazzite has decent desktop similar to deck but wattage all wrong but devs seems active at least, holo iso seems dead.

Would love the duplicate controller issue to go away so didn't need to buy another controller.

EExterma The buttons are nintendo layout I prefer xbox layout though

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:39 PM

fair, i never needed to look at my controller, what throws me more off is when games force (no option to override) nintendo glyphs because you use a switch pro controller

Do you need to do that for a stable to stable update or does that work via ui? Also are those commands via the terminal on the desktop?

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:40 PM

there must be someone else here with a switch controller that could check theirs

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:42 PM

I didn't notice the issue after install till I paired the second switch controller we have purchased own me and GF BUT when the issue is occurring only 1 is powered up. I tried uprising all only adding one but bug is still there

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:42 PM

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:42 PM

oh so maybe the issue only happens if you have 2 switch controllers paired?, its somewhere to start at least

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:42 PM

My stadia controller works fine but causes the Bluetooth to crash completely after about 10 mins at least on chimeraos

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:43 PM

what happens if you remove the 2nd controller from the paired list?

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:43 PM

if you havent tried that already

HHikariKnight what happens if you remove the 2nd controller from the paired list?

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:43 PM

Issue still happens

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:43 PM

hmm

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:43 PM

Only way to test would be full wipe reinstall and don't pair second one for a few days to test

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:44 PM

i have technically 2 controllers that pretend to be a switch pro controller

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:44 PM

i will get a dummy system up to test

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:44 PM

But if it was due to 2 being paired I'd have though once one was unpaired issue would go away

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:44 PM

the joy of being the vfio guy here

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:45 PM

i will see if i pair both the 8bitdo and kingkong 2 pro in switch mode to the same bt adapter if it happens to me too

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:45 PM

I installed bazzite today I didn't notice issue for about 4 reboots and until I had paired the second controller but not 100% without starting again to test

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:45 PM

will need some breakfast first though

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:46 PM

In bluetooth it correctly shows one on and one not connected so it's definitely not see 2 actual controllers

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:46 PM

Also turning off the one your using and back on makes the duplicate disappear I can record the issue if that'd help

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:46 PM

well my bazzite VM is ancient as its still on 38 and is like 2 months old or something now

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:47 PM

will update it while i make food

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:47 PM

oh i have a similar issue but with gyro, not normal inputs

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:48 PM

Not tried gyro yet love gyro on my deck though

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:48 PM

i use it in almost all games

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:48 PM

The gyro doesn't work on the 8bit unless via Bluetooth so it thinks it's a switch controller right?

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:49 PM

as long as analog triggers are not needed

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:49 PM

So via 2.4ghz no go?

EExterma So via 2.4ghz no go?

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:50 PM

switch mode only, but you can put it in switch mode with the 2.4ghz dongle if you use a beta firmware that 8bitdo accidentally gave out and promptly removed because it had some issues they didnt like (like it turns off the controller when switching from xinput to switch input)
i emailed them and asked about the feature and they said they are still working on it and hoping to get it into a stable release at some point

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:51 PM

Easiest solution I think would be to buy a 8bit and use via 2.4ghz but rather use controllers I have and hold put on buying a new one in hope valve make a new steam controller

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:52 PM

we dont even know if 8bitdo is affected or not though

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:52 PM

Amazon reviews for 8bit also show some people saying its not very conformable, how do you find it?

HikariKnight•12/18/23, 1:53 PM

out of my collection of like uh 40+ controllers its probably my 2nd fav

HHikariKnight we dont even know if 8bitdo is affected or not though

ExtermaOP•12/18/23, 1:53 PM

If via 2.4ghz I wouldn't think be an issue can't find anyone else with issue
