Alright so I been daily driving Linux for a couple months now and it’s been pretty smooth going.
Today I felt nostalgic and wanted to play Dark Souls 2. And it absolutely didn’t recognize my controller. This is the first time I had such an issue with the Steam Controller and I didn’t know what to do.
Tried the usual suspects but nothing, and i had to give up. I tried googling, found no results, uninstalled. But I wasn’t happy, so I googled again and found the solution.
Apparently my Keychron keyboard is the issue? So quick exception added and it works. Still wondering why this isn’t an issue in any other game tho…
Is it a magnetic switch Keychron? They have a feature where it can work as analogue input because it can sense how deep the keys are pressed, and it may be emulating a gamepad to do this and taking priority over your main controller
No lol I wish. At least then I could understand why this happens. Although as another commenter pointed out Keychron might be using the same chips for all keyboards so maybe mine has the functionality built in despite not being magnetic and that might be the issue.
