SystemD Service to Enable Native Support for SCUF Vantage 2 and DualShock 4/5 Controllers

Scuf Controller - DualShock Support for Linux

scuf-controller is a package that configures generic and official Dualshock controllers as Xbox Controllers for use within Linux. This works for Official DualShock 4 and DualShock 5 controllers, SCUF brand controllers, and other generic DualShock controllers.

Installation

On Debian/Ubuntu based distros, download the .deb package and install as you normally would. If using the command line, you can run the following:

sudo dpkg -i scuf-controller_1.0_all.deb

Usage

Note: Make sure Steam is not open when starting the service.

# start service
sudo systemctl start scuf-controller

# check service status
sudo systemctl status scuf-controller

# restart service
sudo systemctl restart scuf-controller

# stop service
sudo systemctl stop scuf-controller

Once the service is started, you'll want to wait a minute for the cron to clean up the controller inputs. If you have the service enabled to run at system start-up, then the clean up should be completed by the time you get into a game.

Note: When using with Steam, be sure to disable Steam Input for Xbox Controllers.

You can do so by right clicking the game, going to Properties, Controller, and make sure Xbox Controller is disabled or blank.

scuf-controller's Issues

Scuf envision?

scuf envision doesn't seem to work with this mappings are not correct and vibration doesn't work

Not really an Issue so to speak but maybe possible feature request or help making a Arch pkgbuild for pacman?

I just bought a scruf controller and is in the mail. I forgot to search compatibility before buying it. Searching linux scruf led me to you.

So I don't even know if this is needed as PS5 dualsence support has been added to the kernel but I was wondering if you would be interested in making a pkgbuild file for Arch if the controller ends up not working? So it's in the mail and should be here in a week or so and I can test if it has OTB support and get back to you. That is if your interested? If not would you mind me picking your brain about how this reop works so I could attempt it?

Thanks for your time.
