Hello everybody,
after not using my steam controller for some month I tried to give it a spin last week on my installation of openSUSE Tumbleweed. But I had no luck that the steam controller works in combination with the steam client. So I remembered the early days where you had to add the udev rule. But in the yast software center is now a package called “steam-controller” which adds this rule in “/lib/udev/rules.d/60-steam-input.rules”.

In the description of the package is stated to add the desired users to the group “games”. This is what i did.
benjamin@localhost:~> groups benjamin
benjamin : users games
But I have no luck. The controller works in steam somehow but is definitely not recognized as controller.
So what could I try to fix this problem. Help would much appreciated. Thank you very much in advance.
