I’m on Fedora and I use the xone driver for a wireless Xbox One X/S controller. Every time I update the kernel the xone driver disappears so I need to reinstall it constantly (I assume it’s because of how Fedora handles backup kernel versions). It was not like this back when I was using an arch based distro so is there a way I can make this not happen or is it just Fedora being Fedora?

Edit: turned out something has happened with DKMS when I installed xone. I removed the xone dkms module, deleted the files associated with it and then reinstalled xone so now it works again.

    I don’t know the answer to your question however if you can’t figure it out, I use a Guilikit King Kong Pro 2 which doesn’t require drivers and it works flawlessly on Mint (I assume any distro too)

      Sure, maybe for next time I buy a controller, but for now this is the one I have. Not looking to spend any more money on controllers right now

      I mean, it looks like a sick controller, but I can’t help but laugh at the Engrish on their webpage. “It’s different a lot”.
