I was private messaged a question on how I got my Steam Controller to work on Linux. I told them about the edit and they replied confused on where to place and/or make this file.

If you want to have the steam group you will need to make it. To do this simply do the following.
sudo groupadd steam

The contents of the file as promised. "--" in name is for commenting purposes. Make the file without the dashes as shown in the video.

--99-steamcontroller.rules--
# This rule is needed for basic functionality of the controller in Steam and keyboard/mouse emulation
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="28de", MODE="0666"

# This rule is necessary for gamepad emulation; make sure your user is in the 'steam' group
KERNEL=="uinput", MODE="0660", GROUP="steam", OPTIONS+="static_node=uinput"
