I have another idea, having found the code.
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/e6fe78.../linux_event.py#L773

Try "Wireless Controller:2"

Actually, what do you see with

sudo ls /dev/input

With the controller plugged in. That might help work out what pattern to search for.

I saw that before I opened this thread. But I vouldn't make it work..
This is strange
loadusr - W hal_input - KRAL Controller:2
Throws an error
No input device matching 'Controller' was found (1 devices checked)
The same goes for
loadusr - W hal_input - KRAL Controller:1
BUT...
loadusr - W hal_input - KRAL Controller:0
Loads corectly and the controller works. It should select the first entry but it select the last one...
I'm confused.. Hahaha

Maybe the colon stops the iteriation of the string and that is how it selects the last one (no more characters)

It splits-out the colon before running the search, so I don't think it is that.

But at least we found something that works, even if we don't know why.

Yes it should.. But when I use Controller:1 LinuxCNC throws an error, like it doesn't find any more entrys. It says 1 device found.

What paths exist in /dev/input and /dev/input/by_id ?

That should help to find an unambiguous match. You are likely to see that spaces become underscores.

With controller connected or disconnected
