      Did you download the file and do you already have an idea how to fix that?

          is there a file where I can add the button mapping by hand?

              @elchhome try those commands through SSH :

              mount -o remount, rw /
              echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="input", ATTRS{name}=="Mad Catz C.T.R.L.R", MODE="0666", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}="1"' >> /etc/udev/rules.d/99-joysticks-exotics.rules
              reboot && logout
              

              Your pad is, as I expected, considered as a mouse/keyboard. Those commands above will force the joystick bit, and it should then work. Can you confirm ? If yes, we'll add your pad to 4.1 so that it's automatically detected as a pad

                Thanks a lot! This change makes the controller available to the system.
                Good work! 🙂

                  @acris a reminder for you to include the udev rule in 4.1

                        Hi all,

                        I just got a raspberry pi3, installed recalbox 4.0 on it and tried to set up my gamepads.

                        No trouble with 8bitDo NES pro, nor with an USB generic gamepad.

                        I tried to set up my Mad Catz C.T.R.L.R with this topic's solution.

                        Adding a line in the joystick rule file didn't work at first because of device name.
                        Indeed, the sdptool command on the MAC address told me the device's name is not "Mad Catz C.T.R.L.R", but "HID Gamepad".

                        The CTRLR switch is set on the gamepad.

                        Regars,

                        Denis
