Hm, well it looks like others have been putting out some good troubleshooting tips for the controller. Linux should have kernel modules to deal with every controller and it’s wireless. I know my Dualsense works wirelessly out of the box with everything because of the hid_playstation module
Sleep and hibernation is a well known common issue. I feel like its more hardware related than software, as some people have no issue and some need to do a little tinkering to get it to work. I know my PC will hibernate but not sleep. Or vice versa. I can never remember because I don’t like my PC going to sleep on principle. I haven’t done any troubleshooting because I don’t use it anyway. I just know there are a ton of fixes floating around on the web for you to try.
Flickering and visual glitches is something I used to have. I used to get weird diagonal lines across my screen when certain colors would be in a certain position. There’s a few things that could do this. First, if you’re using an Nvidia card, be sure to use proprietary drivers on Linux install rather than Nouveau. Nouveau is getting better, but still isn’t quite ready for gaming imo.
Second, you could try another video output. I fixed my diagonal lines by switching from Display Port to HDMI. My friend suggested it and I was sure it wouldn’t work, but to my surprise it did. Third, if you’re using Wayland you could try to switch to X11 (or vice versa if you’re using X11).
Thank you for your very detailed comment. I love how helpful the Linux community is tbh.
I was mostly ranting and didn’t actually expect solutions. Thank you anyway!
Sadly not using HDR and lower than 175Hz+3440x1440 is not why i bought my hardware so i don’t think HDMI or x11 will do. Thank for the suggestions anyways!
Ahhh, I see. There should be others that have run into the same issues you have. Don’t give up! I’m sure you’ll run across something that works.
Linux is a great community to be in. I will say that before it rose in gaming popularity, there was a lot of gatekeeping, though. But in the end, 99% of Linux users are just people that go, “I KNOW this can work, and I won’t stop until either I break my system or I figure out how it works.”
