The last commit on that repository was 7 years ago, seems unmaintained. I wouldn’t recommend using this.
If someone decides to use it anyway, don’t use their udev rules. Just install steam-devices
or game-devices-udev
instead. If you don’t have those packages available in your distro, all rules can be found in the git repo https://codeberg.org/fabiscafe/game-devices-udev
You shouldn’t use sudo
to run powerprofilesctl
The controller itself is insecure, it doesn’t exactly conform to Bluetooth standard. There’s no indication Sony ever planned cross-compatibility, the DualShock 3 was made to be used only on the PS3 console, where the lack of authorization supposedly wouldn’t be a problem.
Of course, you can still use it on a system where you can accept the risk, as well as on the PS3, or wired. The controllers are not e-waste yet.
Hi, I can answer about the PS3 controller issue. I thought about making a public announcement about this, but I forgot. I’ll work on that now and then link to it here, but to sum up the situation: Support for insecure legacy devices is now disabled due to CVE-2023-45866, and that includes the PS3 controller. You can re-enable support, but that will make your PC vulnerable when Bluetooth is in discoverable mode — that’s when you’re pairing a device; in GNOME that’s when you just have the Bluetooth settings open; easy to have on by accident.
I’ll explain how to re-enable support in the PSA post. It’s a one-liner, but I won’t put it here because I think people should be well-informed of the risks before considering it.

You should be able to type ç
the way I described for all apps, so you could just remove your custom layout. I highly recommend the English (intl., with AltGr dead keys)
layout, it’s perfect for coding and writing in English. It’s a bit more work to write in Portuguese, though, so it took me a while to get used to it, but it’s worth it if coding is what you’re doing most of the time. In this layout, you must hold AltGr to get the dead keys, otherwise it’s a normal English layout.
You can also use two layouts — one for English/coding, one for Portuguese — and the keyboard shortcut Super+Space to switch between them. I always have two layouts setup like this, but I never switch anymore because I just learned to love the English (intl., with AltGr dead keys)
layout — and I don’t write much Portuguese nowadays.
I’m using GNOME Wayland on Fedora 39 and I don’t have the problem you describe. I just go to settings and select my keyboard layouts:
And everything just works. I specially like the second one because it doesn’t interfere with keybindings in games, which can be a problem in GNOME Wayland.
Oh, I think I get the issue you’re having, you can’t find the Çç character on the Linux layout 😅 I always have to explain this to people migrating from Windows, it’s AltGr+,
(right Alt key plus Comma). I like this shortcut better than the Windows layout, but I understand some people might not like it. Unfortunately, I can’t answer your question, as I too don’t know how to customize the keyboard layout. I just got used to the Linux layout.
SELinux in Podman works pretty much the same way it works on Docker, so if you are having problems with Podman, you should also be having problems with Docker, so I don’t see how that’s impeding your migration. You need to be more specific about the issues you’re having to get a good answer.
The post by Chris Smart you linked on your comment below is a good start, but everything there also applies to Docker, so if you still didn’t know those basics, you shouldn’t be able to use Docker on Fedora either.
About your question of how to set it up, use-case is an important consideration, there is no generic answer that covers all use-cases. I’ve even found out that for some use-cases (like ad-hoc containers), disabling SELinux within the container (with --security-opt=label=disable
) seems to be the most secure option. That’s what I’ve done in contr (see this commit message). I’ve been meaning to blog about that, but never did because I’m in the process of migrating my blog but too lazy to finish it.
I’ve put a lot of links about SELinux in containers in this issue.
rpm-ostree currently does not support DKMS, and it’s unlikely that’ll be implemented anytime soon, if ever. It does support akmods, though, which is the preferred way to build Kernel modules on Fedora. You could ask if the packager can build that way to support the Fedora Atomic editions.
If you need these Kernel modules now, I think your only option would be to build manually from source, but that has the downside of requiring a manual step every time the Kernel is updated.
Edit: there are a few issue reports already: https://github.com/pop-os/system76-dkms/issues/58 https://github.com/pop-os/system76-acpi-dkms/issues/16
