rpm-ostree currently does not support DKMS, and it’s unlikely that’ll be implemented anytime soon, if ever. It does support akmods, though, which is the preferred way to build Kernel modules on Fedora. You could ask if the packager can build that way to support the Fedora Atomic editions.

If you need these Kernel modules now, I think your only option would be to build manually from source, but that has the downside of requiring a manual step every time the Kernel is updated.

Edit: there are a few issue reports already: https://github.com/pop-os/system76-dkms/issues/58 https://github.com/pop-os/system76-acpi-dkms/issues/16

A fix has already been published to Steam stable on Flathub. Workarounds can be removed now.

The last commit on that repository was 7 years ago, seems unmaintained. I wouldn’t recommend using this.

If someone decides to use it anyway, don’t use their udev rules. Just install steam-devices or game-devices-udev instead. If you don’t have those packages available in your distro, all rules can be found in the git repo https://codeberg.org/fabiscafe/game-devices-udev

You shouldn’t use sudo to run powerprofilesctl

you are vulnerable during pairing which is for like a minute.

I said this twice on the PSA: it’s hard to tell if your device is in discoverable mode, and it’s easy to forget it in that state, or start it accidentally. I’ve caught my devices accidentally in discoverable mode many times. You could have your PC a whole week in discoverable mode and never notice it, just by having a settings window left open.

It’s more risk than most people should take, hence the warning.

Still, if you’re comfortable with the risk, you’re free to change the config and allow insecure devices.

The controller itself is insecure, it doesn’t exactly conform to Bluetooth standard. There’s no indication Sony ever planned cross-compatibility, the DualShock 3 was made to be used only on the PS3 console, where the lack of authorization supposedly wouldn’t be a problem.

Of course, you can still use it on a system where you can accept the risk, as well as on the PS3, or wired. The controllers are not e-waste yet.

Hi, I can answer about the PS3 controller issue. I thought about making a public announcement about this, but I forgot. I’ll work on that now and then link to it here, but to sum up the situation: Support for insecure legacy devices is now disabled due to CVE-2023-45866, and that includes the PS3 controller. You can re-enable support, but that will make your PC vulnerable when Bluetooth is in discoverable mode — that’s when you’re pairing a device; in GNOME that’s when you just have the Bluetooth settings open; easy to have on by accident.

I’ll explain how to re-enable support in the PSA post. It’s a one-liner, but I won’t put it here because I think people should be well-informed of the risks before considering it.

Wayland and X11 are protocols, they are essentially just documentation. You need an implementation to be able to actually run programs on it, called a compositor. People tend to think of X11 as a single software because historically Xorg became dominant as the main implementation of the specification, so most of us have only ever used Xorg (but Xorg is not the only implementation of X11, there are many others). Wayland, as a newer protocol, hasn’t undergone such consolidation yet, there are many competing compositors implementing the protocol in their own way. GNOME has one such compositor, and KDE has their own, and there are many others. So it’s not about “Desktop Environments” all running over the same compositor, as it was on Linux in the Xorg days. Instead, the Wayland features you get are the ones your choice of compositor has already implemented, and can vary between different compositors.

Same here! We 100% Linux people don’t get a chart, but we know exactly where we stand.
