Im looking into updating retroarch (it should already be up to date b/c I installed everything like 2 days ago) and it gave me an interesting error message "was not able to configure dualsense controller, using fallback" or something similar when opening the program

Excuse the scuffed screenshot

Aru•2/15/24, 3:51 AM

well, i guess it at least recognizes it as a dualsense edge controller

quick question, if you open your QAM, and look at the Quick Settings, do you see an option to re-order controllers?

Aru•2/15/24, 3:52 AM

sometimes the emulated dualsense edge gets registered as player 2

Aru•2/15/24, 3:53 AM

dunno if that'd be related to your bug, but doesn't hurt to check

matt_schwartz•2/15/24, 3:53 AM

Oh I found my problem

matt_schwartz•2/15/24, 3:53 AM

Steam input

matt_schwartz•2/15/24, 3:53 AM

It works if you force all devices an then choose a deck layout

auxxOP•2/15/24, 3:55 AM

Unfortunately not, dont see any options like that in that menu

Aru•2/15/24, 3:55 AM

aight, well that rules out one possibility

Aauxx Unfortunately not, dont see any options like that in that menu

Aru•2/15/24, 3:58 AM

could you manually remap it? open retroarch in steam, then go to Settings > Input > Retropad Binds > Port 1 ControlsSettings > Input > Retropad Binds > Port 1 Controls

Aru•2/15/24, 3:59 AM

you can choose Steam Virtual GamepadSteam Virtual Gamepad as the Device Index

Aru•2/15/24, 3:59 AM

and then remap each key one-by-one

Aru•2/15/24, 3:59 AM

note, this is assuming you open retroarch through steam

matt_schwartz•2/15/24, 4:06 AM

Tested across both bazzite and nobara without any showstopper issues: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/matte-schwartz/sunshine/

matt_schwartz•2/15/24, 4:08 AM

Kyle, you might want to try throwing that in a testing build to replace the old nightly build artifacts that get pulled from GitHub

matt_schwartz•2/15/24, 4:08 AM

For me on nobara it works across even session or TTY switches, while bazzite seems to die between session swaps

matt_schwartz•2/15/24, 4:09 AM

Maybe a product of GE’s session switching script? I’m not sure.

auxxOP•2/15/24, 4:21 AM

This program is very gross

auxxOP•2/15/24, 4:21 AM

If i manually remap it, I think the "core" profile overwrites it as soon as I open a game w/ mGBA

auxxOP•2/15/24, 4:21 AM

I can make it recognize the dualsense edge by opening the game and toggling fps mode though

Aru•2/15/24, 4:22 AM

yeah, retroarch gui sucks

Aauxx This program is very gross

Aru•2/15/24, 4:30 AM

you're definitely in x-input mode, right?

Aru•2/15/24, 4:30 AM

auxxOP•2/15/24, 4:36 AM

I havent changed this setting(to my knowledge), but im trying to double check. For whatever reason the light flashes seem to be blinking multiple times no matter what

Aru•2/15/24, 4:37 AM

bleh, i wish lenovo made it more difficult to change input modes. it's possible to accidentally trigger it, a 1s hold is too short

Aru•2/15/24, 4:38 AM

not sure if it's your problem specifically, just a general issue that i've encountered multiple times before

Kyle Gospo•2/15/24, 5:17 AM

Very strange

Kyle Gospo•2/15/24, 5:17 AM

I'll keep an eye out

Kyle Gospo•2/15/24, 5:21 AM

Appreciate the heads up

matt_schwartz•2/15/24, 5:21 AM

If anyone reports the same tell them to try a Deck community layout. It’s an issue with the default steam input layout.

Kyle Gospo•2/15/24, 5:22 AM

Hey that's a win, as long as it's not in the kernel

Aru•2/15/24, 5:24 AM

misc side note, the issue we saw earlier with the unified refresh rate slider not correctly showing 144hz is most likely due to steam caching values of some sort.
i rolled back to an image without the gamescope patches, but the refresh rate slider still behaves as if gamescope is patched. I'm assuming it'll go away after a few reboots

matt_schwartz•2/15/24, 5:25 AM

my guess would probably be the EDID file that gets generated and sometimes replaced
