Have you tried CachyOS? I've been considering 1 of these 2. Was leaning more to Cachy.

Looks like xpadneo is Bluetooth only at the moment. I enrolled the mok for akmod. I'll look at doing it for dkms too as xone uses that too.

Why do you suggest KDE?

Somebody else mentioned a working fork too. Thanks.

Thanks! The error I was getting did mention the kernel.

I get a little bit of interference using Bluetooth every now and then that I never have using the wireless adapter. It isn't very often though.

I couldn't get that working on Fedora 41. Which distro do you use? Thanks

Happy to try an Arch based distro if it meets my needs. I have Cachyos downloaded but not looked into it yet.

Oh nice. Thanks. Which desktop environment did you go with?

Hi guys.

Just started looking at using Linux on my main pc. I don't use it too often these days but I like to play around with my pc.

I tried Fedora and it seems fine. I chose Fedora 41 as I wanted to have working Nvidia drivers and secure boot. Got that working but then I tried to use my wireless Xbox series X controller and had no luck getting it working. I tried to install xone but was getting errors.

I've tried Ubuntu is the past but just wasn't to my liking. Linux mint was ok but didn't like the available desktop environments.

I know Nobara is available, but I'd prefer to have something minimal and be able to configure everything myself to my liking.

I'm not so fussed about which distro. Can anyone recommend something that works with: Nvidia drivers Secure boot xone (or something else)

I like the gnome desktop environment.

Thanks. ☮️❤️
