October 18, 20232 yr Hi all, I speak for many of us when I say we don't all have the resources for multiple GPU setups split between gaming VMs and containers. Many of us have turned to solutions like steam-headless (Debian based), steamOS and other native Linux containers to get the job done while retaining GPU use for other needs. These containers have fantastic support for Sunshine/Moonlight or Steam Link game streaming for remote play, which all provide some level of remote/virtual gamepad drivers, however unlike a Windows VM, they sadly lack the main key feature when playing locally: Local Gamepad Support. xone is a Linux kernel driver for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S accessories that serves as a modern replacement for xpad, aiming to be compatible with Microsoft's Game Input Protocol (GIP). Essentially, xone would give kernel support for the following when passed through to a container: The Xbox Wireless Adapter All Wireless Acessories All Wired Accessories All Accessories via Bluetooth (xpadneo) There is full support for: Input and force feedback (rumble) Battery reporting (UPower integration) LED control (using /sys/class/leds) Audio capture/playback (through ALSA) Power management (suspend/resume and remote/wireless wakeup) This would further open up unRAID's use cases in the gaming world and bring the same gaming VM goals far closer to a greater variety of rigs, budgets, and mixed-use setups. It also has other applications beyond gaming such as better control of home media apps with the chatpad attachment etc where supported.
