Hello everyone. Experiencing the same problem. But the solution provided here does not work for me, I guess.
When booting up Lakka, waiting for 1–2 minutes (also SSH service needs that time until it’s started), then powering on the gamepad, I get the following in my SSH session:
###########################################
# Lakka - The DIY retro emulation console #
# ...... visit http://www.lakka.tv ...... #
###########################################
Lakka (official): 2.3.1 (RPi2.RPi4.arm)
Lakka:~ # bluetoothctl
[NEW] Controller B8:27:EB:3D:A1:8F %h [default]
[NEW] Device E4:17:D8:46:65:6A 8Bitdo SFC30 GamePad
Agent registered
[8Bitdo SFC30 GamePad]#
So … the gamepad IS connected. But the retroarch interface shows no message about some registered controller and also doesn’t react to my key strokes.
Any ideas?
