Hi, I'm also experiencing similar problems. Does anyone have a fix they could recommend please? I have 2 PS3 Street Fighter IV TE Sticks (Round 2). One works in Rehcalbox, the other doesn't. Strangely, one appears as 'MadCatz Fight Stick', the other as 'PC Wired Stick 8838'. They are both detected in Recalbox (controller screen says 2 Gamepads detected), yet the 'PC Wired Stick 8838' will not register any buttons/stick movements. Is there a driver that needs to be installed for this one for example? Thank you so much for your help!!

When you when you do this command jstest ? Stick your respond? you see mode on/off move?

[steveb83]

Just updated to beta 16 but still not detected. No. jstest does not change from off to on.

[acris]

hmmm , strange, can you use this command : evtest /dev/input/event3 press on the buttons and joysticks moved There Has it an activity?

[acris]

Try to add this via winscp : create with notepad++ this rule : 99-madcatz.rules ADD this SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{name}=="MadCatz PC USB Wired Stick 8838", MODE="0666", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}="1" put into this folder /etc/udev/rules.d via putty chmod 0775 /etc/udev/rules.d/99-madcatz.rules reboot et try again

[steveb83]

Thank you. evtest /dev/input/event3 just stayed at 'Testing... interrupt to exit' No Joystick`Button response. I will try to create a notepad++ file called '99-madcatz-rules'. Will the only line in the file be: SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{name}=="MadCatz PC USB Wired Stick 8838", MODE="0666", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}="1" ? Should there be any other lines of code\text? Thank you again!   PS Can I also run "chmod 0775 /etc/udev/rules.d/99-madcatz.rules" from the command prompt?

[acris]

Should there be any other lines of code\text?

no, only this line.

Can I also run « chmod 0775 /etc/udev/rules.d/99-madcatz.rules » from the command prompt?

yes you can.

[acris]

Use putty like terminal to connect to recalboxOS in SSH or Direct access On the frontend screen, press F4 to quit, then ALT+F2 to get a terminal and use the same credentials as above.

user : root
password : recalboxroot

nano -w /etc/udev/rules.d/99-madcatz.rules copy/paste this line : SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{name}=="MadCatz PC USB Wired Stick 8838", MODE="0666", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}="1" ctrl+x , Y, et enter to out in terminal

chmod 0775 /etc/udev/rules.d/99-madcatz.rules

reboot rpi try to configure gamepad to emulationstation.

[steveb83]

I'm so sorry, where should the file go? My file structure is different?? I have three partitions, "boot", "recovery" and "share". http://en.zimagez.com/zimage/fullsizerender64.php In terminal I typed: chmod 0775 /etc/udev/rules.d/99-madcatz.rules and tries chmod 0775 /share/etc/udev/rules.d/99-madcatz.rules but couldn't find any file? Sorry!!

[acris]

You must use TERMINAL TO CONNECT SSH not copy/paste into share folder : https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Root-access-on-terminal-(EN) or directly into raspberry. Folder ETC is a system folder. delete /share/etc/udev/rules.d/99-madcatz.rules

Hi all, I've exactly the same problem as Steve with a PS3 MadCatz TE Round2, the buttons doesn't respond. I've created the "99-madcatz.rules" and modified the chmod rights correctly, then reboot the pi. nano /etc/udev/rules.d/99-madcatz.rules write into the file : SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{name}=="MadCatz PC USB Wired Stick 8838", MODE="0666", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}="1" save the file and modify the rights : chmod 755 /etc/udev/rules.d/99-madcatz.rules then reboot I've used 755 in order to give the same rigths as the others rules (99-sixpair.rules, 99-wiimote.rules) in the directory /etc/udev/rules.d/ Here is my pastebin of the command line you advise to Steve : http://pastebin.com/RbtR0aUf The evtest command line display always this pastebin, even if the fightstick is used : http://pastebin.com/JMX4in5f I don't know if it's not a problem of hardware compatibility ? If you've got any suggestion or sample of other config file, or command line to solve this problem i'm really interested in. I've tried to test any config option from the board on the left side "LP" / "DP" and "RS" no changes occured in the behaviour of the PS3 MadCatz TE R2 when i plugged in the usb on the raspberry. Thx for your precious help Note : sorry for the multiple "EDIT" i don't really arrived to customize my post display ... as i'd like to.
