I have an 8BitDo Pro 2 controller I’ve used a bunch without issue on Windows, now I’m moving to Linux (Mint specifically) and I’m having trouble getting the controller to work. It’s supposed to work with Linux, but I can’t get it to work. Steam doesn’t detect the controller in its settings.

    I’m not sure I’m quite technical enough for this, what exactly is the uinput I need to put into the file from step 4?

      Its literally just the word uinput.

      So you can do

      sudo echo 'uinput' > /etc/modules-load.d/uinput.conf
      

      Which just tells your system to load the uinput module on startup.
