@Terrorwolf here's the issue thread
could you post the output of lsusb?
And is anything in the logs?
Did you install OpenDeck Flatpak or from the AUR?
should i copy/paste here or do you prefer a pastebin type approach? and by logs, do you mean console when opening via CLI or is there a logfile somewhere I should look at? I installed via AUR
Is StreamController completely stopped when opening OpenDeck?
good question, I did make sure to fully quit from the taskbar, but I didn't verify. let me check top
I am happy with either. With logs I mean the Logfile. In your Case it should be at ~/.local/share/opendeck/logs/
Did you install OpenDeck or OpenDeck-git?
opendeck (not -git). lsusb and logs incoming
lsusb: https://files.beptech.net/send/text_ytajq36vt9f7#wXoCMY8vQe4Rbm8oxxr-dDuGuioCDZ4HpapOb-lPbAo
Also, what is the currently installed OpenDeck Version according to the Settings Page?

v2.6.1 (799af63)
StreamController is/was completely closed down
Ok.
If I am not mistaken, the Support for the Modules startet in 2.7.0 of OpenDeck.
aha
Could you try updating and see if it works?
absolutely!
Also the lsusb you sent me isn't showing any Streamdeck devices as far as I can tell.
hmmm one sec
that might have been the one I copied when I was unplugging/replugging it
yeah, here's the streamdeck line: Bus 007 Device 008: ID 0fd9:00b9 Elgato Systems GmbH Stream Deck MK.2
everything else is the same
while i wait for the update, do you happen to know the difference between pacman and paru? pacman seems to only have so many packages, but paru seems to be pulling from other sources as well. eg, pacman installed 2.6.1, but when I use paru, it saw the available upgrade and allowed me to do it
pacman shouldn't be able to install OpenDeck (unless you somehow added support for the AUR for it).
paru is a pacman wrapper which adds support for Packages from the AUR.
pacman has the official packages from the Arch Repository. In the aur, everybody can make a package. In case of Opendeck, we aren't in the official repos, thats why I am maintaining the OpenDeck and the OpenDeck-git package. Also there will be an OpenDeck-bin package soon.
ah i see i see. okay good to know, thanks for the info. updated, and still not seeing the deck show up =[
i've been messing around with udev a lot though, let me try a restart, before diving further in
Solution
yep, 2.7 is needed for modules support
updated and it does say 2.7 in settings?
waiting on the restart currently.
it's possible you need to open OpenDeck on a boot that hasn't yet opened streamcontroller
ah yes, restart for the udev rules to apply
but you shouldn't have both OpenDeck and streamcontroller udev rules, it can cause problems
the OpenDeck ones should be enough for streamcontroller to work (haven't tested vice versa) so you can remove the sc ones
lol okay something went terribly wrong and now Linux won’t even boot. I’ll work on fixing this and let you know when I’m ready to continue troubleshooting. Thanks for all the help thus far
If there is something I can help you with, just tag me. But then maybe in #off-topic if its just Linux help and not OpenDeck.
🥴
I swear I’m usually pretty good with Linux lmao
No need to defend yourself. Something can always happen. Regardless of Linux, Windows, MacOS, freebsd and so on.
let us know when you get it working so we can close the github issue
