          Did you run the sudo commands to allow non-root users to run that command?

          sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chrippa/ds4drv/master/udev/50-ds4drv.rules -O /etc/udev/rules.d/50-ds4drv.rules

          sudo udevadm control --reload-rules

          sudo udevadm trigger

            @mschreiber Got a message after entering...command not found....this sucks....I really don't want to waste 30$ on a dongle....either that or find a used Ps3 controller on the net..

                  It's a separate command. Don't put anything after it.

                    @mschreiber nothing still.. maybe I have one that won't connect? It does for Bluetooth.. but will not let me connect at Start menu.. even reset the controller.
