jupiter-controller-update error

[DocMAX]

I'm not running SteamOS but Arch Linux. Why do i get an error here? Also Steam does not detect SteamDeck Controller anymore. Any ideas?

Kernel: Linux steamdeck 6.8.1-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sat, 16 Mar 2024 17:15:35 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Do you mean that you installed plain Arch Linux instead of SteamOS in the Steam Deck? This is the SteamOS issue tracker :-)

[DocMAX]

Yes plain Arch Linux. But why shouldn't this be supported? Anyway i updated the controllers wie SteamOS from external disk. Closed.

Not sure why you closed it, since this will come back to bite Valve once they'll update the python base. I've tracked down the source of the error, it's an hid package regression introduced on 1.0.6; see https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite/issues/1108 and https://github.com/apmorton/pyhidapi/issues/60. Downgrading to 1.0.5 fixes the problem entirely.
