Controllers Not Working, Can't Use Bazzite (Steam Deck LCD)

So, i tried installing Bazzite earlier today, seemed to be working fine on first boot. i ran through it, and installed all my apps. then i rebooted to Gaming Mode. then i was met with the welcome screen. no inputs were registering. any help?

erm.... login to steam also complete the bazzite portal when both are complete run a system update in desktop mode (system update application) reboot see if any of your issues persists

tryhardsoccermomswag

Woolium
WooliumOP12mo ago
Yes.
tryhardsoccermomswag
And its running?
Woolium
WooliumOP12mo ago

tryhardsoccermomswag

Woolium
WooliumOP12mo ago

Im assuming everything is bound. wait for kyle to say like antheas i don't have a deck running bazzite
Kyle Gospo
Kyle Gospo12mo ago
I do, w/ gnome I'm unable to reproduce that on my LCD or OLED also, do not use X -- we ship Wayland by default this is acting as if start is being held down
Woolium
WooliumOP12mo ago
Well, it’s not
tryhardsoccermomswag
ohhh have you dropped your deck recently
Woolium
WooliumOP12mo ago
No.
tryhardsoccermomswag
oh ok
Woolium
WooliumOP12mo ago
It was working fine on windows I’ve never dropped it in my life Could it be the dock I’m using?
Kyle Gospo
Kyle Gospo12mo ago
maybe? or a connected controller somehow? does seem odd
Woolium
WooliumOP12mo ago
No, it’s not. I never set up Bluetooth.
Woolium
WooliumOP12mo ago
It’s fine. I was pressing start in BPM and it was fine

WooliumOP12mo ago
I feel like Bazzite is more trouble to work with so I’m just gonna restore to factory. Thanks for everything. So explain to my why the regular Valve setup works?
Kyle Gospo
Kyle Gospo12mo ago
since i can't reproduce your problem I cannot explain why ours doesn't
Woolium
WooliumOP12mo ago
allright whatever
Kyle Gospo
Kyle Gospo12mo ago
ours is 1:1 with Steam, input is powered by the steam app
Woolium
WooliumOP12mo ago
Yeah I guess so I'm giving up on bazzite anyway. Back to arch it is.
