Support For More Bluetooth Guitars & Other HID Changes Ahead Of Linux 6.20~7.0

5 months ago by cm0002 to c/linux

A lot of HID subsystem updates have been queuing up ahead of the Linux 6.20~7.0 merge window in February. There is a lot of new hardware support on the way along with quirks for some existing hardware support ranging from laptop keyboard issues to enabling support for more PS4/PS5 guitars under Linux.

Damn, it has been years since I last played Guitar Hero. We even had a full blown rack with stage lights above our TV in my parent's house.

What was that one that had the full band worth of gear?

Anyway maybe I can finagle my old ps2? 3? guitars for my kids to use. I remember seeing a open source guitar hero implementation somewhere.

Same with the DDR stuff, I think my kids would have a blast with that.

Rock Band maybe? We've been mostly playing that, made for a great highschool party.

Do my eyes deceive me? A Phoronix article without people yelling at each other in the comments section? I probably just arrived too early.
