I am on Fedora as well and have used the microsoft wireless dongle with the medisalix/xone kernel module in the past, but i stopped using it since it had me pull and plug the dongle once every while to make it work again.

Nowadays i just use bluetooth (with my xbox one and xbox series x controller). You actually don’t need any additional packages for that. Three things to consider about this:

• You possibly have to upgrade the controller firmware with an atrocious app on a windows machine
• pairing is a nightmare (needed an hour for one controller always trying until the pairing completed)
• You need to set some bluetooth settings in a config file for Bluetooth LE timings since the microsoft team thought it would be funny to not let the controller advertise the right configurations.

All that said, once paired and configured it just works ™. Feel free to reach out if you need further information.

Krita is a different kind of tool used for drawing, but still really good. I don’t even know the adobe way to do this lol.

Gimp would be image post processing software like photoshop is. Also Inkscape is a vector graphics software like adobe illustrator.
