# Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
## The controller is not listed
|
||||
|
||||
1. Confirm the controller is powered on and in an active input mode. An
|
||||
8BitDo device shown by `lsusb` as **8BitDo IDLE** is not yet an evdev
|
||||
controller and cannot produce input events.
|
||||
2. Connect it over USB or pair it through a supported receiver/Bluetooth mode.
|
||||
3. Check kernel discovery with `ls -l /dev/input/event*` and `evtest`.
|
||||
4. Reopen the app or switch Simulation Mode off in Settings.
|
||||
|
||||
The app only reads Linux evdev capability metadata. It does not send
|
||||
undocumented commands or update controller firmware.
|
||||
|
||||
## Permission denied for input or virtual controller
|
||||
|
||||
Install the local udev rule:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
bash scripts/setup-linux.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then log out and back in so your new `8bitdo` group membership takes effect.
|
||||
Settings → Diagnostics reports whether `/dev/uinput` is writable.
|
||||
|
||||
## Duplicate or missing game input
|
||||
|
||||
Do not enable live remapping until the virtual controller pipeline is active
|
||||
and the physical input device is safely grabbed. Until then, keep remapping
|
||||
disabled to retain direct physical-controller input.
|
||||
|
||||
## No battery or firmware details
|
||||
|
||||
Those details are optional Linux input properties and may not be exposed by
|
||||
every controller mode. This application never queries undocumented 8BitDo
|
||||
protocols to obtain them.
|
||||
|
||||
## App will not build
|
||||
|
||||
Install development dependencies:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
bash scripts/dev-deps.sh
|
||||
npm install
|
||||
npm run tauri dev
|
||||
```
