3 days agoI just use Virtual Machine Manager, the thing is that once you add the controller to the list of passthrough devices into the Windows VM, it’ll change (spoof? create a virtual device?) into another device ID meaning you then have to add that device afterwards and then you’ll be able to use the software to change stuff. Bit finicky, and it means it’ll have to be done each time one wants to boot up said VM and change stuff. But it works.

I knew I wanted to switch at one point before Microsoft ended support for Windows 10, so I began experimenting January 2024, but I quickly realized I could make do with what I had in my MX Linux install. Granted, X11 and more than one monitor with 2 different refresh rates wasn’t great, but by February of 2025 Nvidia fixed some variable refresh rate bugs that made Wayland primetime ready, and I’ve been on Nobara ever since. And it’s been incredibly stable. And there’s so much fun stuff to do.
