I like the idea of having split controller. So I want to use them with my main rig. And out of the box the controller part works well. It finally connected with the android mode (legion right + a). But it also connects every 7th try, though this might just be my shitty bluetooth card or I need a bios update.

Regardless, none of the extra buttons or gyro or touchpad are working.

I barely understand udev rules so figure I'd ask around.

inputplumber looks like something that should solve this but I've not drilled into the hid events that are exposed to see how things could be mapped with it. Or if those events are even present over bluetooth and only work "wired" when using the handheld these are usually attached to.

The charge puck/bridge thing doesnt seem to make the two halfs function as a wired controlled if you were wondering. But I only got the controller today so need to play with it more.
