Hey @all,
why I’m here
I’m new to Garuda and I’m on my way to completely switch from Win 10 to Garuda, mainly for gaming and working on light office tasks, etc.
why do I post this issue
I search for your help to get my controller working.
I hope to find the culprit and hope that my PC with 7 years old hardware is not getting too old now…
what have I done before I post here
I installed Garuda a few weeks ago and don’t know if I did something wrong, so I did a fresh install of Garuda.
I updated my system with the Garuda Welcome Assistant.
I searched the web, forums and wiki to get a solution.
The most issues about the same or similar topic are a few years old (2016 to 2023) and the solution most of the time was an system update to the current version…
what is my problem
I want to connect my Stadia Controller with my PC via bluetooth, but it is not possible.
Yes, the bluetooth mode is enabled and the controller is working on other devices (Android Smartphone, SteamDeck, Surface Go (Win10)).
I got six different Stadia Controllers and all are working fine with other devices.
what have I done to fix the problem
After I tried to connect my Controller with the system settings → bluetooth I only got an error message without good informations (“There was en Error during Setup deivce XX”), so I used
bluetoothctl → scan on → pair with [MAC ADRESS]
My controller is found, but does not connect and I get this error message:
[bluetooth]# Failed to pair: org.bluez.Error.AuthenticationCanceled
Here is the output:
