I have an 8BitDo Pro 2 controller I've used a bunch without issue on Windows, now I'm moving to Linux (Mint specifically) and I'm having trouble getting the controller to work. It's supposed to work with Linux, but I can't get it to work. Steam doesn't detect the controller in its settings.

I use the arcade stick, pro and pro 2 controller, all of them are 8Bitdo and everything is okay. Which linux groups is you user in? I had a similar problem because my user wasn't in input group in void linux

Edit: I can play both wired and wireless with bluetooth
