Rename linux controller

Post by rondnelson99 »

Any way I can change it so it is not called droidmote in my games? I plan to have 2 controllers connected, and the game I want to play (supertuxkart) doesn't work if 2 connected controllers have the same name. I use droidmote on aarch64.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

It seem more a bug of the game that a droidmote problem.

No, with droidmote you can't change the name, maybe you can find a tool to do this.

Also if you connect two hardware controllers of the same model you can't change the name by default.

This don't mean that you can't use two controllers in some games.
