        18:12 I should've installed the missing multilib libraries and other packages before I recorded this video. I also had to add my user (chabulhwi) to the dialout group.

        As of May 13, 2026, a user has to build a drop-in replacement for the X11 XTEST extension before using the Steam Controller on a Wayland-based Linux desktop environment or a Wayland compositor, except for GNOME or KDE Plasma. My guide may be outdated in the future.

          • A better case for the zBitx

            This is a time-lapse video of the change in body for the zBitx.

            The modification for the case is from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7015499

          • Using the zBitx with a powerbank and a USB-C PD trigger

            A quick video showing how a zBitx can be powered with a USB-C powerbank instead of the default Li-ion or LiFePo4 18650 batteries for better field operations.

            The accompanying post is available at: https://ham.bharathpalavalli.com/posts/20260502144921-making_the_zbitx_field_worthy/

            The components:

            1. 9V USB-C trigger board
            2. Powerbank capable of 9V
            3. Any USB-C cable that can handle different voltages
            4. A 2.1mm power cable
            5. And of course, the zBitx

              6. The modification to the case is:
