For information, this driver is not needed anymore in sdl2 applications (mame, retroarch, etc.) since version 2.0.12 because there is internal support for the adapter.

This package should be named wii-u-gc-adapter-git.

Do you mean the call to `modprobe`? The package creates a file in /usr/lib/modules-load.d/ that should take care of loading the module on subsequent boots. If you do not wish to reboot, it is also possible to load the module by hand, and it should only be necessary to do it once.

Please add "systemctl daemon-reload" in [Service] in the service file (like in ccl2of4 file). Adaptater doesn't work here without it.

Well, I've never made a PKGBUILD before, so maybe we can help each other out. I just made one service file. It can be started via systemctl start wii-u-gc-adapter Here's the service file: -- cat /etc/systemd/system/wii-u-gc-adapter.service [Unit] Description=Wii U GC Adapter [Service] TimeoutStartSec=0 ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/modprobe uinput ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/wii-u-gc-adapter [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target -- You would have to change ExecStart to point to the correct location of course. For some reason, wii-u-gc-adapter doesn't work for me unless I first run /usr/bin/modprobe uinput So that is why it is in the file as ExecStartPre

Indeed, this currently must be run manually. Unfortunately, I am not familiar enough with writing systemd services or udev rules to provide them at the moment. What does yours look like?

Does this have to be manually run whenever you want to connect a gc adapter? Would it be a good idea to set up systemd service (that's how mine is configured)? Or could there possibly be a rule that makes this run/stop when a gc adapter is plugged/unplugged?
