Latest version (v0.0.2a) controller does not work

[lutechsource]

When updating to the latest vesion, the Steam Controller no longer works. If I uninstall the wrapper then the controller works again in Lizard. Re-installing and it stops working again.

No inputs are registering so i cannot navigate menus or map controller buttons.

Thanks for creating an issue!

I believe I know what is causing the issue. The steam controller sends status updates for the button state, axis state, and trigger state via two types of packets. 0.0.1a and 0.0.2a only detect one of those packets types.

0.0.1a and 0.0.2a also place configuration files on the Mister to govern how the Steam Controller communicates with the embedded Linux environment. While that works, the more reliable method is to have the scwrapper application configure the controller itself.

I'll push an update tonight, which should fix this issue. The only downside, is that the new update doesn't implement haptics. So, while the touchpads will still behave like a mouse, but they will not have that "click" feeling.

Hey, could you update scwrapper.sh (either by re-downloading or through update-all) and see if it works? Incidentally, I actually ran into issue with 0.0.1a/0.0.2a while testing today. 0.0.3a is working for me. So, I'm hoping you have the same issue and this release resolves it.

I just tested it and the controller is working again. Thanks for updating. I still need to do further game testing later, but at least things are working now.
