Einleitung
Verwende diese Anleitung, um die Thumbsticks deines Steam Decks in SteamOS zu kalibrieren.
Valve empfiehlt, diese Softwarekalibrierung nach der Installation neuer Thumbsticks durchzuführen.
HINWEIS: Die Kalibrierung von Thumbsticks und Triggern beim Steam Deck unter SteamOS Version 3.3 funktioniert möglicherweise nicht.

Wenn du dich noch nicht im Desktop-Modus befinden, navigiere zum Steam-Menü → Power und wähle Zum Desktop wechseln.
-
Drücke die Steam -Taste + X, um die Bildschirmtastatur zu aktivieren.
-
Suche und öffne im Menü Suchen nach Konsole .

Gib innerhalb der Konsole
thumbstick_cal
ein. -
Drücke Enter .
I get a command not found error when using the above script in Konsole.
Solved - must be using “stable” os channel vs “beta” for this to work.
I am in stable and in a recent update this command is indeed not available ;( (was before)
Hello, I was able to solve this issue it is in a dedicated comment on this step.
I was able to calibrate my thumb sticks in multiple update channels recently. The command in this guide,
thumbstick_cal_v1_1
, no longer exists as it's now named simply,thumbstick_cal
.However, even then I needed to run the commands
sudo steamos-readonly disable
and thensudo chmod +x /usr/bin/thumbstick_cal
(both of these commands will require the user to have set their user password with the commandpasswd
before executing them). Executing the command sudosudo steamos-readonly enable
after this is recommended unless you know what you are doing.For whatever reason the calibration program wasn't executable (auto-complete will not work on non-executable files if they are they first thing being typed in the shell, and non-executable files will give a 'permission denied' error while trying to be executed).
After that I was able to run the command like normal. From my experience, this will have to be done every update until Valve ships the program with the executable flag set.
Does changing it from read only allow it to actually function properly and save the changes? I found a different method to run thumbstick_cal on Reddit, and while it would run, the new calibrated values didn't seem to do anything.
New Method
How to calibrate your thumbsticks if it gives you permission denied on konsole:
1. Go to your rootfs folder
2. Go to you usr folder
3. Go to bin folder
4. Now look for the thumbstick_cal file and copy it
5. Paste it anywhere you like (desktop, micro sd, etc)
6. In this case I paste in the root of my micro sd
7. Next go to properties then permissions and check the is executable box
8. Go to konsole and copy then paste the thumbstick_cal file
9. And done you're ready to calibrate your new gulikit thumbsticks without any errors or any permissions.
Hope this helps anyone having drift on their steam deck.
Im still getting the permissions denied on mine after following your steps
Mine says,
"Steam deck calibration utility version 1.1--follow instructions carefully,
Stopping Steam if running...
Connecting to Controller... Could not connect to controller system.
Exiting."
Does this mean there is something going on with the hardware or ribbon connection? -

-
Stelle sicher, dass beide Thumbsticks unberührt und zentriert sind. Drücke Enter .
-
Tippe auf einen leeren Desktop-Bereich, um den Cursor aus dem Konsole-Fenster zu bewegen. Stelle sicher, dass dieKonsole nicht im Fokus ist.
-
Drehe jeden Stick zweimal um eine volle Umdrehung (360 Grad) .
-
Tippe auf das Konsole-Fenster, um den Fokus wieder darauf zu richten. Drücke Enter .
-
Das war's! Deine Thumbsticks sind jetzt kalibriert. Das Terminal sollte Thumbstick-Kalibrierung erfolgreich anzeigen.

Hey, bei mir fehlt dieses Kalibrierungsdtool irgendwie.
Habe einen factory reset gemacht und nun spinnen bei mir einige Sachen.
Hat jemand 'ne Idee woran das liegen könnte, oder woher ich das Tool bekomme?
nevermind
Nach einem erneuten firmware reset war das Tool plötzlich wieder drauf. *klatsch* *klatsch*
Hatte gehofft es hilft bei meinem Snapback-des-Todes Problem beim linken analog stick.
Leider nichts gebracht. Trotzdem danke für das Tutorial, bzw. die Übersetzung davon!
If you get an error about command not found when you try to run the joystick_cal_v1_1 script, this is likely due to you being on a beta OS, or just Valve decided to move it? not sure...
In any case, you can still run the calibration with the following commands (Thanks to dorsey6250 on Reddit for this workaround)
``cp /usr/bin/thumbstick_cal ~/thumbstick_cal_v1_1
``(This will copy the script from a system copy to your local home folder)
``chmod +x ~/thumbstick_cal_v1_1
``(This will make the script executable)
./thumbstick_cal_v1_1
(This will actually run the script)
Valve needs to either put it back where it was, or iFixIt needs to include these instructions in addition to what they have.
Hope this helps someone!

I replaced my analog sticks with the Hall effect sticks and the calibration won't work with the buttons on the Hall effect circuit boards or from the konsole. When I try the calibration through the konsole I get a "Permission Denied". Why is this and what do I need to do to calibrate them?
The script has been locked for some reason there are instructions within this comments thread to enable it again. Can confirm it works as I’ve done it myself.
Making an account just to say that this guide is now incorrect, or Valve has done something and changed how to do this. I've tried everything on this page including a factory reset, and the guide from user Ben Sumner/WACOMalt and nothing has worked.
This worked for me: https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comme...
@bubba6977 for me it helped as my centers werent quite correct, so it does help if the sticks arent perfectly on center.
although I didnt use thumbstick_cal but rather thumbstick_fine_cal which asks for a bit more input (basically flick the stick in a direction then let it return slowly, for all 4 directions.
This worked perfectly well for me and made a drifting left joystick work like it is brand new again. Thank you for this guide, it is better than any other I've found on the internet to fix these type of problems. Also don't forget to order your screwdriver kits too!!
