movement controls issue on a switch pro controller #89

Open sigzegv opened 2 years ago

sigzegv commented 2 years ago

I am new to the switch pro controller world on linux. I have the hid_nintendo driver working perfectly when loaded alone without joycond, all the controls and the gyro works fine (eg with yuzu everything fine at the same time).

But I also want to use this config with steam, and I saw the joycond service provides a fix with udev rules to allow hid_nintendo to not conflict with steam driver. The issue I have, when I start hid_nintendo + joycond, is that the gyro controls seems to be detected as a secondary controller. It's not usually an issue for steam games, but I cannot use gyro controls on yuzu anymore after that.

Is this a known limitation or is there a fix ?

Yuzu and ryujinx use the raw input devices through sdl2 gamepad not the hid_nintendo driver. The secondary evdev device is how hid_nintendo (and playstation) expose the gyro and accel, this is how it should be.

I'll check tonight if I can reproduce this but last time yuzu worked fine with joycond running.

I checked using the pad on yuzu without the hid_nintendo driver works but it's very unconfortable because the 4 little bottom ligths are constantly sweeping (like it doesnt find a slot), (and I don't get the motion sensor detected either without hid_nintendo). I'll wait for your test for gyro/accel on yuzu with joycond.

Yeah, the joycond udev rules break yuzu. If the virtual device is supposed to allow for this then it's not working.

is there anything you can do ?
