I recently bought a SN30 Pro 2 controller from 8bitdo. They claimed to support the Steam Deck so I thought I could flawlessly pair it to my PC running Pop OS. I was able to get it to "connect", but none of buttons would register (only on XInput mode, nothing would happen in DInput mode). My bluetooth adapter works just fine.

It's based on Ubuntu and was supposed to have support for a lot of devices out of the box.

generally they do though at times the module isnt started when pc runs so you might have to use lsmod and get the kernel module going

Steam os is debian or ubuntu based right? At any rate you should just be able to add the source repos and get whatever software/drivers you think might be the issue w/o a reinstall.
