Found my old FC30 Pro controller. I never really used it because input always lagged but apparently a firmware update (from 2018) is all I need to fix that.
I'm trying to follow a guide to update the firmware using fwupd.
I have managed to download the firmware, when I simply plug it in and run "fwupdmgr get-devices" it shows there, so far so good.
I run fwupdtool with the right file and ID, it gets partway through and says "Not in bootloader mode". No problem, I unplug, do the connect-power combo to put it in firmware update mode, plug it back in, but nothing happens, it eventually times out saying "device b98dcbe7e3ef783abca3da45f65d42297211578c did not come back".
When in this mode lsusb reports it as "0483:5750 STMicroelectronics LED badge -- mini LED display -- 11x44", which, to be fair, seems to be correct, for a certain definition of correct.
When I run dmesg, there's the matching vendor and product IDs with the expected product information, different from the "mini LED display", but regardless...
$ dmesg
