Title: Steam Controller support: need read-write access to Valve-owned input event device nodes. Status in steam package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in steam source package in Trusty: Confirmed Status in systemd source package in Trusty: New Status in steam source package in Vivid: Confirmed Status in systemd source package in Vivid: New Status in steam source package in Wily: Fix Committed Status in systemd source package in Wily: Incomplete Bug description: The Steam Controller is about to roll out; for the Steam Controller to be supported properly by the Steam Client, it needs to be able to read and write to HID device nodes that have the Valve USB vendor ID. In our own Steam package 'steam-launcher' [1], this is achieved by a udev rule [2] matching our vendor ID. There doesn't seem to be such a udev rule in the Ubuntu-provided package, meaning Ubuntu users will not be able to use the Steam Controller out of the box.
