In 2020, I decided that I wanted to add some light gaming to my repertoire. I bought the most popular Logitech game controller on Amazon (the Logitech Gamepad F310), and I assumed that since it was so popular, it would work in CentOS 8 with no problems. When the gamepad arrived, I fired up Extreme Tux Racer, but the gamepad wasn’t recognized. In this article, I will describe why this lack of Logitech F310 gamepad support in CentOS 8 motivated me to switch from CentOS 8 to Pop!_OS 20.10.
