Title:
Steam Controller support: need read-write access to Valve-owned input
event device nodes.
Status in steam package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
The Steam Controller is about to roll out; for the Steam Controller to
be supported properly by the Steam Client, it needs to be able to read
and write to HID device nodes that have the Valve USB vendor ID. In
our own Steam package 'steam-launcher' [1], this is achieved by a udev
rule [2] matching our vendor ID. There doesn't seem to be such a udev
rule in the Ubuntu-provided package, meaning Ubuntu users will not be
able to use the Steam Controller out of the box.
