Cant install dkms-hid-nintendo kernel module

Hi guys
Ive just stumbled upon this kernel module as I wanted to connect my joy cons to cemu as one homologic controller. But when I try to run the given commands "git clone https://github.com/nicman23/dkms-hid-nintendo
cd dkms-hid-nintendo

sudo dkms add .
sudo dkms build nintendo -v 3.0
sudo dkms install nintendo -v 3.0", it gives me the output:
"[root@daniel-aspirea71541g dkms-hid-nintendo]# git clone https://github.com/nicman23/dkms-hid-nintendo
cd dkms-hid-nintendo

sudo dkms add .
sudo dkms build nintendo -v 3.0
sudo dkms install nintendo -v 3.0

Re: Cant install dkms-hid-nintendo kernel module

You should use AUR packages: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/hid-nintendo-dkms/ instead of opting for directly installing these kind of things past pacman.

You may want to read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ar … Repository if you aren't yet familiar with AUR packages.
