#Bluez (#bluetooth) on #Linux has been kinda ass lately. Previously it went through regressions which caused some game controllers to no longer work on BT such as #DualShock4 and #DualSense when they were perfectly fine before. Just upgraded to 5.71 and now my Bose QC45 stopped working on BT too.
Update: Solved by forgetting and repairing the device, which still isn't ideal but glad that worked. Will need to test if the issue reoccurs upon next boot, otherwise I probably will either use Timeshift to go back, or simply downgrade all the bluez packages.
Another update: At least the update seems to actually have fixed the DualSense issue so that's nice! Haven't tested, but I expect connection issues with DS4 should be fixed too.

Well, first I was not happy when I realized the 7800 PAL compatibilty is so bad (NTSC is OK).
Never wrote so many posts on #Atariage before, reporting all my findings.
But after some days I made my peace, put it in my guest room and like it now some how😊
Original (cleaned!) 2600 PAL games run OK and I could play the very first time #Robotron2084 NTSC twinstick on a #Dualsense via #Unijoysticle2 🤙
Now we wait for updates but Pitfall2 and ARM homebrews will never work.
I'm hopeful for the #PlayStationPortal next week. I tested #Playstation Remote Play on an iPad since that's the closest comparison.
2 advantages it has over Chiaki on #SteamDeck is #PS5#DualSense support, including haptics, gyro, and touchpad support. So many PS5 games rely on those features, and some don't work without them. The other advantage is that it works over any network, and does not need to be on the same one.
Customer demand has been strong with restocks being sold out quickly.
It's still really weird that my #DualShock/#DualSense controllers still don't work with #Bazzite (#Ublue/#Fedora) on #bluetooth. They work fine wired. My bluetooth mouse works fine with it too. Definitely isn't an issue on the controllers' side since they work fine on bluetooth on my #ArchLinux PC out of the box, and also my #SteamDeck. They even work on said PC when it was on #EndeavourOS before I switched to Bazzite. It's the only thing holding me back from recommending or installing Bazzite on more systems.
