  Probably launched them through Steam to use Steam Input.

    Apart from the fact that Steam Input is a book with seven seals to me, it does not forward gyro input to any emulator I have tried. Not at all. It simply gets no gyro input when I try to set the button layout via emulator menu.

    In fact I can‘t even get the gyro from the DualSense to work over Steam while it works out of the box without Steam running. I wish I could just tell Steam to not do anything but unfortunately Steam Input is mandatory for the Steam Controller.

    I have tried to get it to work for endless hours and I‘m pretty sure it‘s actually not possible on Arch Linux. It‘s also very frustrating to keep reading „just use Steam Input bro“ as if that explains anything. What do you guys even mean by that? Do you have a step-by-step guide how to make gyro from the new Steam Controller readable for emulators? Because god knows the internet could need one.
