        @albecacif just to confirm, can you execute groups ? this should show you all the groups the user belongs to. Did you reboot right?

                is your Logitech working when you select mouse index 1 in RA?

                      The keyboard is working fine. Only the mouse fails.

                          test your mouse in mame2003 with outrun believe it or not.

                          left click will accelerate
                          moving the mouse will turn the car

                              @grant2258 after the feedback it looks like indeed it is an RA issue then.

                              Great that you will scalate it to the RA guys. As a hint, my best guess of where the problem might be is in this post: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/20004/mouse-as-a-zapper-lr-fceumm-rpi-3-b/29
                              I don't have time nowadays to debug it myself unfortunately :( Thanks!

                                Hi,

                                The outrun version that I have only runs on FBalpha.

                                Thanks a lot for your help :) I think this is a RA issue since it works fine in a 1.6.x version.

                                  Maybe it's this issue in the RetroArch's issue tracker ?
