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.
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# 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-controllerOnce 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.
You can do so by right clicking the game, going to Properties, Controller, and make sure Xbox Controller is disabled or blank.
Pull requests are welcome. For major changes, please open an issue first to discuss what you would like to change.
If you have any issues or would like to add support for additional controllers, please open an issue for discussion and tracking.
