ds4drv DualShock (I think is an annoying theme..)

Saltyy

Hey,

https://github.com/macunixs/dualshock4-pi -> It explains what i want more detailed.. :D

I would like to setup my RetroPie like that, but sadly it isnt working...
So, anyone got a nice idea?

The Problem is, that my DualShock Controller isn't connecting without the "ds4drv" command... and I don't want to connect everytime with ssh to my pi and let my laptop running the whole time... so... i want to fix this :D
Sadly with the normal bluetooth it's "working", it finds my Controller and add it but then a error apper...

I hope for good solutions!

best regards,
Saltyy

@saltyy The DS4 controller should work without the driver you're mentioning, just pair it via bluetooth and then configure it in Emulationstation - see https://retropie.org.uk/docs/PS4-Controller/.

@mitu Well it works, but i have to use "ds4drv" every time trought ssh, so its not rly effective... it works but its a annoying workaround... ^^"

I have a Sony DS4 and it works without any ds4drv installed, I'm don't understand why need to install it.

@mitu Me too, orgnally it worked but after 1 Day it came a error, so i tried it with ds4drv, now it kinda "works"

and funny or not...

ds4drv --hidraw --led 000008 => cant connect
ds4drv (or ds4drv &) => can connect

i hate my life.

What error did you encountered after 1 day ? Just running away from an error to stumble into another is not going to solve anything.

@saltyy Well i think its no use to try to fix a error that i dont understand, it appers every time even if i reinstall it, and tbh, there a a lot of errors on the pi ^^

and... the error is about a ps3 controller, mine is a ps4 so its kinda wrong ^^
