Looks normal except I have never seen a h0 for d-pad. Why do they call it hat anyways?

In the link it says that the enhanced re-transmission mode interrupts connection to... RetroPie. Though I thought since you are connected maybe this is outdated.

If you could connect to SSH or Command line type this to check its status
cat /sys/module/bluetooth/parameters/disable_ertm

and then try this
sudo bash -c 'echo 1 > /sys/module/bluetooth/parameters/disable_ertm'

the parameter will not be saved upon reboot.
if you dont want to set up ssh you could edit that line into \configs\all\autostart.sh

DavidB21

@Efriim It responded with Y which I assume means it is disabled. So this isn't the problem.

mitu

@DavidB21 Remove the .cfg file, then rename the other and remove the .rp-dist suffix. Save on Exit is not enabled by default in RetroPie and can leave to un-desirable effects - like controllers not working.
Just reset the config file, then boot up a game to see if the controller is responding.

DavidB21

@mitu That didn't work. I booted up the game and everything was the same as it was before.

mitu

@DavidB21 Can you try another system and ROM besides NES ?
If that doesn't work, then try installing the xpadneo driver from https://github.com/atar-axis/xpadneo:

exit Emulationstation with F4
run git clone https://github.com/atar-axis/xpadneo
run cd xpadneo
run sudo ./install.sh
reboot, then reset your input configuration and re-configure the gamepad again in Emulationstation.

@DavidB21
A difference I could see in the retroarch config is the device index for player 1 2 3 and 4 are all 0, where mine is 0, 1, 2, 3.
input_player2_joypad_index = "0"
this should still work for player 1 though.

Do you have the xboxdrv package installed, and have you configured it or enabled it. I don't know much about this package, it might not be necessary try disabling it.

DavidB21

@Efriim I uninstalled that earlier and it did not help.

DavidB21

@mitu I got an error when running the install.sh

* replacing version string if necessary
* copying module into /usr/src
* adding module to DKMS
./install.sh: line 30: dkms: command not found

Efriim

@DavidB21
sudo apt-get install dkms
dynamic kernel module support or something other.

DavidB21

@Efriim thanks that worked

DavidB21

@mitu The xpadneo driver worked but there are still some issues with the nes emulator. The xbox controller worked the first time I booted up the nes emulator after installing xpadneo, but then never worked after that. It worked with other emulators, but not with the nes one.

@DavidB21 delete the retroarch.cfg file in the nes config folder and then reinstall retroarch.

DavidB21

@DavidB21 Also the hotkey to leave the game doesn't work on the nes emulator either.

edmaul69

@DavidB21 read my last post

DavidB21

@edmaul69 I just did I am about to try that.

DavidB21

@edmaul69 After removing the file how do I get it back?

edmaul69

@DavidB21 reinstall retroarch in retropie setup.

DavidB21

@edmaul69 ok

DavidB21

@edmaul69 I removed and then reinstalled retroarch and the retroarch.cfg file isn't there
