ah cool nintendo switch controllers don't work on linux for reasons. 
having to use xinput mode means no gyro aim. gross. 
@icedquinn pump it through steam and map gyro to mouse?
@beardalaxy linux seems to have some half-assed driver for switch pro controllers. there's a bunch of log errors about failing to set LED levels and shit.

@icedquinn you mean the steam input drivers or something else?
bluetooth can be difficult... maybe try a different bluetooth adapter
@Jain @beardalaxy it does that on the wire too.
some shitlord wrote this driver apparently. its a known issue

@Jain @beardalaxy apparently it has something to do with non-official controllers do not have an LED round the home button and the linux driver is hard coded to terminate the device if it fails to probe that light.
there's a fix that's just been sitting in the mailing list for 8 months
