You can add support for it manually by installing the xone driver (Tutorial here), but it involves unlocking the file system and will have to be repeated after any steamOS updates. Not really ideal, would be very nice if Valve could include it.
Upstream it into the kernel. Open source usually revolves around everyone solving their own problems (being selfish according to GKH), but everyone else profiting from it as well.
The repo is outdated, there's a new fork that should be used.
Which fork? This one?
https://github.com/dlundqvist/xone
Yes that is the one to use
I did it a few times, then got tired of doing it after every update. My hope was always Valve adding it to the system themselves.
Bazzite ships it out of the box:
Another win for Bazzite
