The following is a list of suggested flairs:
[Discussion] - General discussion.
[Help] - A request for help or support.
[News] - News about the deck.
[PSA] - Sharing important information.
[Game] - News / info about a game on the deck.
[Update] - An update to a previous post.
[Meta] - Discussion about this community.
Some more Steam Deck specific flairs:
[Boot Screen] - Custom boot screens/videos.
[Selling] - If you are selling your deck.
These are not enforced, but they are encouraged.
Rules:
Make sure your controller's firmware is updated. I've seen a fair number of complaints about getting a DualSense working outside of a PS5 where the owner never updated the controller.
That was it! The controller I was using needed a firmware update. I tried that and when I took it back to my SteamDeck, voila!
Nice
Can the controller be updated without a PS5?
yeah sony has an app for windows
