Unfortunately I don't have the same setup: I use the xboxdrv kernel module to use the PS5 controller for Steam games without native PS5 controller support. I deactivated Steam input for this game (Elite Dangerous, btw.).

I connect (USB) the controller before starting Steam. After connection I immediatly unload the hid_playstation module and start xboxdrv as root (I needed to create a custom mapping for it). Only after that I start Steam and can use the PS5 controller flawlessly in-game.

You might ask, why I am using a PS5 controller instead of an xbox controller. It's all about ergonomics. The PS5 controller is simply better for me.

I wonder if showtime has yt-dlp support and could potentially replace mpv.

I wish the floating zoom controls would fade out more. Other then that, it is better than Evince.

I dislike these non-posts! Why linking to the forums and not give some actual information about the Solar system tour?

Nowadays busy with making my useflags compatible with bin-packages to reduce time to update.

I am curious, though how adoption of this new feature is.

Subjectively, I think, KDE/Plasma would make me unproductive compared to Gnome, maybe not as much as being on Win11 for sure. Both are cluttered and distracting from my point of view.

I am looking forward to niri, because I realized that GTK is the real king that makes Gnome so awesome to use. Niri would make window management even better. (:

A word on new Linux users: I have seen most prefering Gnome, older people tend to prefer the Gnome classic, because they are used to the idea to see which programs are currently running (taskbar). And this makes it easier for me to help them, because it still behaves like a modern desktop.

The KDE/Plasma/XFCE/Cinamon users around me are all long time Linux users. They made a dicision for themselves and know how to use it.

Clearly, Gnome is the most modern looking of the three.

Nothing is graceful about Windows. [=

Nothing my Cobra 5 with frags and PAs can't handle.

But I am curious how my Py2 with condords and paccis will deal with them. [=

That idea means, I need a payment method at Frontier. Currently I buy Arx through Steam.

But what would this mean for the Arx you earn during gameplay?

Unfortunately, yes. /:

I decided for the Dualsense, because of the ergonomics. Full feature support was not a priority in my case.

Does this game have support for the xbox 360 controller? If yes, you can try xboxdrv. It requires some manual config in a text file and you need to unload the dualsense driver before starting xboxdrv and the Steam client.

I have very good results in Elite Dangerous on Linux which has no Dualsense support at all.
