      Hi everyone

      I'm actually facing a small problem on a sideproject.
      Doing a very small gamestation with pi zero w.

      I'm testing it with a microsoft usb controller (that has always perfectly work on my main raspberry pi 3 gamestation).
      The controller works for the first 30 seconds of game and then it's like the pi loses it.

      On emulator like snes i can unplug and plug back but on neo geo it doesn't work.

      I've tried to set the max usb current to 1 thinking it might be a power loss but it doesn't change anything.

      After another test, it seems that it happens only when i use left thumb stick. Like the signal gets blocked (i can hve my character staying crouched, or wlaking straight and nothing stops it).

      Could it have a link with the fact that for stick we only confiure up and left now ?

      Do you have any clue about this problem ? I haven't seen it on the forum

      Best regards

        @greed it's not an emulation problem. Rather a driver/kernel/hardware problem
