I installed LXDM and LightDM, I couldn’t login from the DM in either cases, so I decided to run LXQt using startx which worked, except I couldn’t sudo from the terminal emulator inside LXQt, while I was able to sudo normally in tty, I’ve tried enabling elogind, nothing changed, my user is in the wheel group and my system is up to date

      I generally find this to be the easiest option if my system is giving me issues. Void took me a few installs before getting the right combination of packages and services running. It’s definitely my favorite distro so far, considering that it provides stability while remaining on a rolling release cycle.

      As to your controller, look into the xpadneo or xone packages. Both are available on Void. Not certain they’ll work with PlayStation controllers, but I wasn’t able to find any packages dedicated to them.

        Nope, xone ain’t doing it, it’s an Xbox series controller, but it could be related to my laptop hardware being extremely outdated idk, I should’ve tried it on a different distros, it works ootb on different machines running Arch and Pop

          If you haven’t already, try using a wired connection. That should remove the primary difference between xbox one and series controllers. I’d also suggest using a tool like antimicrox to see if you’re receiving input from the controller. You may also want to look into what solutions other distros use for Bluetooth, as the answer could be buried in there.

            I’ve been trying exclusively a wired connection to dodgr Bluetooth issues, the controller is detected by the system (it’s creating a /dev/input/js0) and the controller vibrates on connecting but the LED is off and no input is received on the laptop’s side
