so is that an "okay thanks i will help" or "okay thanks i will just wait for someone else to hopefully help"

Of course, but I am a very young beginner in Linux

thats fine, we got the ally x working with the help of someone with 0 experience through antheas guidance. first step is always to get basic controls. but i asked mainly because it took months before anyone was actually willing to help even get basic controls working on the msi claw as people popped in, said they would help get the data we needed and then leave an hour later 🤷

I try my best to learn a lot about Linux and mainly for Bazzite.

Msi is intel SO it's different We did the stupid display less thing in a day with bringus Although still it's not ideal
HikariKnight
HikariKnight•4w ago
yes but i was talking about basic controls not the other stuff people came, said they would help and left immediately
antheas
antheas•4w ago
If this thing sells enough we can fix it At least the basics
HikariKnight
HikariKnight•4w ago
from my understanding at least getting basic controls working is usually the easiest right

on my Legion go it also runs pretty smoothly

Here are my devices which were all found under bazzite. But I don't recognize anything under there except the controller

What extension is this Is the orientation in gaming mode correct?
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
No, only this command in the terminal will get you into Steam mode rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing=video=eDP-1:panel_orientation=left_side_up only then was it correct
antheas
antheas•4w ago
Ok I will fix that too

I need hid recorder ?
antheas
antheas•4w ago
Wireshark on windows would help
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
I have only Bazzite on my device 😟
antheas
antheas•4w ago
That might have been premature
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
Currently it is only the control inputs many things work out of the box
antheas
antheas•4w ago
You will need to dual boot for controller and bios updates So I suggest you get it over with and reinstall windows now so we can also fix the controller vaster
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
okay I'll do that now 🙂 I'll let you know as soon as I have both systems back on So now i have dual Boot System on Zotac
antheas
antheas•4w ago
great install wireshark and get a bit accustomed to it I already fixed the orientation in the kernel so that will be included in future bazzite versions i need to update those instructions for hid but wireshark is still valid you dont need hid recorder anymore
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
I also noticed that there is an screen in desktop mode during the new installation. This should also be fixed

Thx Do you need recording from every USB device?
antheas
antheas•4w ago
no i dont know how to explain this but what i need is for you to find the usbpcap endpoint the usb controller is in and then open that, and make a recording where you change settings in zotac zone then i will make a filter for you and you can see what youre recording
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
I have found it

I think this is the end point
antheas
antheas•4w ago
yes select only that great
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
What exactly do I have to do now?
antheas
antheas•4w ago
when you start recording you can see packets arriving
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago

antheas•4w ago
yes open zotac zone change something like the rgb then save and send it here then I will make a filter for you so you can see the commands and after that you can make focused recordings for e.g., rgb
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
But should I open it with the buttons and adjust it?
antheas
antheas•4w ago
sure doesnt matter just do something so we get some commands going
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
right ?

on the hid data in the bottom then you can see the commands zotac thingy sends go to the zotac app, maybe take some screens of the settings then just record each section individually and write down what you did at the end, zip and send thats it
Foxcloud

Foxcloud

I hope that was right Do that for the first time sorry
antheas
antheas•4w ago
i think so, i dont have a context for the recordings so it will be a bit tough I will try to look them over closer tomorrow some pictures of the ui would help
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
From Zotac Launcher ?
antheas
antheas•4w ago
yea you used zotac launcher for this right
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
Yes

antheas•4w ago
ok thanks, i looked at them so lets add to the list back buttons rgb and vibration/deadzones/remapping as for fixing the controller for now without steam shortcuts sudo systemctl start hhd@$(whoami) will give you some basic tdp controls with touch gestures on the sides BUT fan curve might be wrong then echo 1EE9 1590 | sudo tee /sys/bus/usb/drivers/xpad/new_id try this it should fix the xbox controller until you reboot if it works ill tell you a command to fix it permanently and add it to the kernel

thats ok happens when steam is active ok let me give you a command
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
Does it not work in desktop mode?
antheas
antheas•4w ago
no its because steam does desktop profile stuff
ATTRS{idVendor}=="1EE9", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1590", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe xpad" RUN+="/bin/sh -c 'echo 1EE9 1590 > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/xpad/new_id'"
ATTRS{idVendor}=="1EE9", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1590", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe xpad" RUN+="/bin/sh -c 'echo 1EE9 1590 > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/xpad/new_id'"
add this to sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/10-zotac.conf then reboot and it should always work
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
with ' " ?
antheas
antheas•4w ago
exactly as its written in the black box run has an " and then echo has a ' before it so its correct
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
no doesnt work after reboot
antheas
antheas•4w ago
uh looks correct can you check you wrote it correctly maybe i did the wrong dir its getting late you can also try to change 1EE9 to 1ee9 i will recheck tomorrow Ok, so can you send me the location of the file you made and cat its contents? You can just take a picture of the cat command

Hey 👋 I managed to do it myself yesterday, it was just the vendor ID, the letters had to be lowercase
antheas
antheas•4w ago
great, I will add that to the kernel too
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
How can I bind the steam shortcuts? Because these keys on my zotac are not working
antheas
antheas•4w ago
well we need to fix those you can run some stuff for that but right now you cant
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•4w ago
No problem, I'll just use it like that. If necessary, I'll connect my Dual Sense controller. Merry Christmas
antheas
antheas•3w ago
Merry Christmas sudo hhd.contrib hidraw will allow you to view the vendor devices and get the ids of the front buttons and maybe the back ones

It listed 4 IDS for me
No description
Foxcloud

Do I just have to add the IDS to the kernel?
antheas
antheas•3w ago
Wtf No I'll do kt There should be a usage page starting with 0xff
Foxcloud
FoxcloudOP•3w ago
None of them start with 0xff and sometimes when you restart Bazzite there is only sound but no picture. @antheas

We are cooked Try to see the back buttons if they do something
