@ddoherty958 So post the file from your pi so the community can check that you have typed correctly etc.etc. i.e correct vendor and product id etc. etc. How did you edit the file? Did you save on exit? etc..

@ddoherty958 Can you post the output of sudo lsusb (while the controller is plugged in) and the content of the /boot/cmdline.txt ?

ddoherty958

@rbaker

Thgis is the CDM.txt file:

dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=serial0,115200 console=tty1 root=PARTUUID=14a75fe9-02 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline fsck.repair=yes rootwait loglevel=3 consoleblank=0 plymouth.enable=0 usbhid.quirks=0x0314:0x0328:0x040

I can't upload files yet

mitu

@ddoherty958 The name of the file is cmdline.txt, not cmd.txt.

sorry. I just typed too fast. It is that one, cmdline

ddoherty958

@mitu

after that command it says:

@ddoherty958 Unfortunately the image is too small to see anything. Can you upload a better image ?

Looks like you have copied the wrong IDs from the docs - your cmdline should look like

dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=serial0,115200 console=tty1 root=PARTUUID=14a75fe9-02 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline fsck.repair=yes rootwait loglevel=3 consoleblank=0 plymouth.enable=0 sbhid.quirks=0x16c0:0x05e1:0x040

Notice the Vendir and Device ID are different - you copied the ones for the Juyao Dual Arcade, not the Xin Mo that are referenced first.

@mitu

Thanks! I'll try that and get back to you

ddoherty958

so when it came on the joysticks work but the buttons don't. I cam't configure them again because A doesn't work. The USB keyboard doesn't work either.

ddoherty958

right I removed the extra code and VOILA! Buttons are working again. Weird!

ddoherty958

However if I add it in again they stop. Annoying!

Doctor doctor, It hurts when I do this.

Doctor: Well don't do that.

I had something similar happen once. Not saying it will work for you, but in my case I just deleted the controller config files (following one of the documents around here somewhere) and let the system start over asking to configure the controllers as if it was the first time.

A very "did you try turning it off and then on again" solution but it worked for me.

@lurker

Thanks, I'll try that too.

How exactly would you do that?

Starts flipping through rolladex

Hey kids, you remember what a rolladex Is don't-cha?

Lets see here...
Queens,
Quilting,
Rampage,
Ah... Resetting.

...Resetting the matrix? ...ummmm...you didn't see that
AH, here we go resetting the controller configuration

You can ssh OR just plug a keyboard in a navigate that way.
