I have 3 of their controllers. All excellent hardware-wise but a bit shit when it comes to their software. Don't think you'll even be able to do this firmware update on Linux. Curious to see how well the Steam Input support works in any case, especially whether it includes gyro.
Interestingly - I have 4 (two Pro 2's, an SN30 Pro, and one of the Ultimate C variants) and have used them all on my Steam Deck before. The past couple of years at family gatherings I've hooked up my Deck to a big screen and allowed the kids to play Mario Party and such.
So I'm kind of confused about what is being added now. Their post says more details to come so I guess I'll see?
Should be the ability to freely remap their controls using the Steam Input interface. They've always worked on Deck as regular XInput devices.
