            yeah the f5 button is very importyant , your right

            i just dont see how f5 is mapped to the

            R Button

            i didnt map

            R button

            or

            L button

            do you know why they are mapped .. and the other button are not mapped

            TL2 = SELECT

            TR2 = START

            on my controller under test menu (evtest /dev/input/event0)

                --ui-buttonmap a=BTN_LEFT,b=BTN_RIGHT,start=KEY_F5,back=KEY_ESC \ this came from my setup, since you need these for play anyways

                the rest is on you

                --evdev-keymap BTN_EAST=a,BTN_SOUTH=b,BTN_[•]=x,BTN_[•]=y,BTN_[•]=lb,BTN_[•]=rb,BTN_TL2=back,BTN_TR2=start
                

                BTN_[•] this just means its blank till you add what button goes to it

                this is what you have

                so far the buttons you have mapped are btn east and south, and your TL buttons

                thx for the vid.

                this is a good thing cuz it is working, we just need to get the keys to do what we want

                the big part is getting the dpad to work.
                bad part is my xdrive is now not working. so i cant test it on mine just yet

                    yeah the swtich controller have some messed up names for the buttons.
                    once you find out what name goes with what button then you can map it

                    use a note pad and write it down as you press them thats what i did

                                      ok this might be a pain for you, and im sorry.
                                      but wipe everything out of the runcommmand.

                                      save it in a txt file of course.

                                      i want to see if there is something overriding what we are trying to do, cuz what you posted should of changed when you changed the mapping

                                      also you have xboxdrv installed

                                      reboot after you wiped the file
