So I've got Manjaro KDE running, and for some reason, none of my apps recognize controllers. The System Settings and AntiMicroX recognize them, and they also work on Cemu via Wine, but Native Linux apps I've tried out (PCSX2 and Dolphin Emulator) don't recognize any controller. I have noticed that there appears to be a number of critical background programs that are missing from AUR. Proton-GE has dependencies that currently won't install. Anyone having these same issues, and is there any way to get linux to recognize the dualsense touchpad?

Are they standard controllers? Are they wireless? How were the applications set up (Native, Snap, or Flatpak)? Dependency handling works well on Arch itself. What issue are you encountering? If you're using Steam (Native), you should use proton-ge-custom (Native) instead of proton-ge-bin (Steam Soldier Runtime for Ubuntu). If you prefer not to build it, it's also available in the chaotic-aur repository.

I have a dualSense controller and an 8bitdo SN30 Pro 2. I'm not using Steam because it's slow to log in. I'm attempting to get Proton directly from Pamac. The issue is the package lacks a PGP signature or it wasn't located, even after searching for it.
