The latest Linux gaming handheld driver work by [1]Derek Clark of [2]Valve's Linux efforts is the OneXPlayer Configuration Driver that is now set to premiere in the upcoming Linux 7.2 kernel cycle.

This new OneXPlayer Configuration Driver "hid-oxp" was originally covered on Phoronix [3]back in March but has now worked its way to a HID subsystem branch ahead of the Linux 7.2 merge window in June. This driver among other features enables support for RGB lighting controls, vibration intensity attribute, and hardware-level button mapping interface. The OneXPlayer RGB lighting controls include attributes for brightness, multi-intensity, effects, toggling on/off, and the speed for effects.

This new driver, which is GPLv2+ and copyrighted by Valve Corporation, is now in [4]hid.git's for-7.2/oxp Git branch and also queued in turn in the HID's "for-next" Git branch.

So if you are using a OneXPlayer gaming handheld with Linux, look forward to this new configuration driver coming in Linux 7.2.
