I have my steam deck mostly in my dock on my big screen but I been needing a controller for it.

Does anybody know a good brand that’s not Xbox or PlayStation or Nintendo that supports Linux and there software for there controller works on the steam deck to be able to adjust the settings on the controller?

Preferably with holo joystick and can work wirelessly or wired with back buttons like a steam deck.

I thought about 8bitdo buy there software don’t work on Linux.

    I use a Gulikit King Kong Pro 2, it’s got the hall effect sticks and works flawlessly on my Linux gaming PC. It doesn’t have back buttons though which sucks obviously but other than that 👍

      The newer Gulikit KK3 Pro and KK3 Max have the back buttons op is asking for. I also use the KK2 Pro and it’s really great. All the adjustments can be done on the controller itself and there is no software needed. These third party game controllers like Gulikit or EasySMX are miles better then any first party ones
