8BitDo finally makes installing controller drivers on Linux a breeze with its new website
As much as I want to say that Linux is perfect in every single way, the truth is, it isn't. Some companies handle their driver updates via a bespoke app, and getting that same app onto Linux may not be ideal. Fortunately, perhaps inspired by the number of people moving to Linux to game , 8BitDo has fixed the issue with its own controller drivers with a website that lets you download your drivers.
8BitDo has launched a website that simplifies the process of installing controller drivers on Linux. This development aims to make it easier for users to set up their controllers on the operating system. According to XDA Developers, the new website allows users to download drivers for 8BitDo controllers.
The issue with installing controller drivers on Linux has been a challenge for some users, as companies often handle driver updates through bespoke apps that may not be compatible with Linux. However, 8BitDo's new website seems to address this problem.
No further information is available on the website's features or functionality beyond allowing users to download drivers. The launch of this website may be a response to the growing number of people using Linux for gaming.
