      Hi all,
      I (newbie) have just installed RetroPie on top of Ubuntu on an x86 laptop. as I don't have any compatible controllers (yet) I thought I would configure my keyboard as a controller.
      However, after assigning each function to a key, I am stuck. The "OK" button at the bottom of the screen goes grey, but nothing else happens. It feels a bit stupid to get stuck in the process so early :)
      I hope someone can give me some advice.

        @JanB Press the A mapped key to submit the configuration once the OK button is highlighted.
