[SOLVED] Can't recognize gamepad Logitech F510

Hello to the community and to all Arch users.

I have a Logitech F510 gamepad in my possession and I can't, with any software controller, recognize it. I've tried the AntiMicro (AUR) for instance and couldn't trace it. Do I have to do anything than plug-in and run a controller, or install need packages in order to make it work?

Logitech gamepads are generally very well supported under Arch, in my experience.

Have you loaded the joydev module? Or read any of this?

I have a F310 gamepad and it only works in XInput mode (mimicing a Xbox 360 controller). That's the switch on the back of the gamepad (X <-> D, D meaning direct input). Is there a particular game, you have trouble with?

I enabled the modules, the module of the joystick (analog and adi) and the joystick module joydev. Also the USB module (usbhid). Those I think are needed for my case, don't know I missed one.

I've tried the device with jstest-gtk-git AUR) and it is blank.

@ChemBro I haven't enable my gamepad yet, I'm going to use it to play with emulators MAME and Nestopia, mostly Nestopia.

UPDATE Everything are working perfectly also the antimicro. Just after the reboot I had, the changes had been worked.

Thank you for your time.
