ACKTCHUALLY the original Xbox One controller does not support bluetooth, that only happened with the controllers that were released after the Xbox One S/X.

    you may be right; I never followed Xbox releases (not that microslop's naming convention helps)

    all I know is I've had this controller since late 2018

    I've got one of the original XBox One controllers, pre-bluetooth. It uses a dongle that is actually a 2.4Ghz wifi dongle. Linux defaults to seeing it as a wifi dongle unless the right packages are loaded. Quite a headache.
