Did you try removing then re-installing ? Please can you provide a full log (from RetroPie-Setup/logs)

Yes, i tried to remove the gamecon drivers and reinstall them. I also tried the update all packages option (including kernel update) and install all drivers from binary and from source. This is a full log:

Please try this from a terminal sudo apt-get remove db9-gpio-rpi-dkms gamecon-gpio-rpi-dkms

then try re-installing
