My steam controller works great when plugged directly into the desktop. When I try to use my Steam link, however, the /dev/js0 device is not created. I therefore can't play joystick games. Oddly enough, when I use the controller to mimic mouse and keyboard input, it works just fine. It also controls the big picture GUI normally.

I just recently migrated from Ubuntu, where it worked fine.

Here is my udev rules (taken from the wiki page):
Code:

# Valve USB devices
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="28de", MODE="0666"
# Steam Controller udev write access
KERNEL=="uinput", SUBSYSTEM=="misc", MODE="0660", GROUP="input"
# HTC Vive HID Sensor naming and permissioning
KERNEL=="hidraw*", SUBSYSTEM=="hidraw", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0bb4", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2c87", MODE="0666"


My user is in the input group. I have relogged in (and rebooted).

I'm using the anyc steam overlay, installed through layman.

Please let me know if there are any logs or outputs you need.

Oops, nevermind. I had enabled uinput, but forgot to fix the grub conf, so I was running an old kernel!

Disregard folks, nothing to see here. Move along.

:p
