Hello, this is not working very well for me, when I run make I get this error

g++ -std=c++11 -o SteamworksPy.so -shared -fPIC SteamworksPy.cpp -l steam_api -L.

Hello@all. I'm having problems installing it. First I had to use "sudo steamos-readonly disable", after which I now get this message:
"bash: Line 1: make: Command not found.
bash: Line 13: make: Command not found.
chmod: Cannot access '/usr/share/gadget-deck/GadgetDeck/GadgetDeck': Is not a directory
Usage: steamos-add-to-steam [-ui] "

I've been having some gadget adventures myself

g_ether and g-mass storage work well

g_webcam with https://git.ideasonboard.org/uvc-gadget.git as the controller will show up on the connected host for about half a second and then disappear. Have not been able to get that pipe to work. I noticed that you mentioned UVC as well. Have you gotten anything to work there?

The makefile directly runs pyinstaller as well as pip. None of which are available. I tried pacman -S python-pip which installed fine but that gave me

pip install -r requirements.txt
error: externally-managed-environment

× This environment is externally managed
╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try 'pacman -S
    python-xyz', where xyz is the package you are trying to
    install.

    If you wish to install a non-Arch-packaged Python package,
    create a virtual environment using 'python -m venv path/to/venv'.
    Then use path/to/venv/bin/python and path/to/venv/bin/pip.

    If you wish to install a non-Arch packaged Python application,
    it may be easiest to use 'pipx install xyz', which will manage a
    virtual environment for you. Make sure you have python-pipx
    installed via pacman.

note: If you believe this is a mistake, please contact your Python installation or OS distribution provider. You can override this, at the risk of breaking your Python installation or OS, by passing --break-system-packages.
hint: See PEP 668 for the detailed specification.
make: *** [Makefile:31: install] Error 1

Based on the readme you have stated that I only need ssh and a user password set up. I think that is not a comprehensive list.

Hey. I'm having some sort of issue while trying to install. I tried to install some times before, but was unable to due to the system being read-only, but it still is having issues unfortunately. It keeps trying to overwrite a folder within the gadget-deck that doesn't exist, and I cannot create that folder or have it make that folder itself. Listing the issue:

cp: cannot overwrite non-directory '/usr/share/gadget-deck/GadgetDeck' with directory 'GadgetDeck'
chmod: cannot access '/usr/share/gadget-deck/GadgetDeck/GadgetDeck': Not a direcfory
Usage: steamos-add-to-steam [-ui] <path>

It doesn't show up on Steam or the app launcher, so I'm unsure what to do. New to stuff like this, so maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I'm also planning out a USB Gadget Utility on a different platform (Ubuntu Touch on Pinephone Pro).

Thought you might be able to make use of this list I wrote on Reddit:

• https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1annx0u/a_comprehensive_list_of_all_configfs_functionfs/
• it contains all ConfigFS/FunctionFS/Gadget API tools that I have discovered on Github posted on Reddit.

I added your utility to it, even if it isn't in a working state. Don't feel too bad. Most of the items in that list probably aren't in a working state either, but it should give you a plethora of source code to gloss over. That's the plan for how I intend to use it once my Pinephone Pro arrives.

Hey, I submitted an issue earlier but I thought I fixed it, but sadly to no luck.
I installed everything, GadgetDeck showed up in my Steam library, but running it does nothing. It does pop up a copy of SpaceWar in my library, though. Nothing opens, it just goes back to the regular screen.

Hi - I saw you have some recent contributions to SteamworksPy, something I'd like to add features to. I'm wondering if you'd like to collaborate or even pair on a feature. Sorry for this being kinda off-topic, but I didn't have any other way of contacting you (unless I subscribed to LinkedIn premium but I didn't know if you'd see my message if I went that way).

Hi!
Just wanted to note that the Deck's controller appears internally as a USB device, and I've had luck using software like VirtualHere to instead "plug" the controller into my PC's USB wirelessly, and it essentially acts like the deck's inputs are plugged into the PC instead of the Deck. Everything steam input-related works (mostly...) Trackpads, back buttons, capacitive touch on the joysticks, only thing that doesn't really get transferred over is the touch screen.
As of late, it seems to have gotten a bit wonky for me for some reason (Doesn't control the desktop once Steam loads up the desktop control config, sometimes doesn't work on games?) but until recently it was working as it should.
Anyway, it'd be nice to have the same thing done with this as VirtualHere does.

i don't this this service can work with a spurious nonexistant executable.

I have loaded your script as per the instructions with no errors.

Shows up on Arch Linux host machine as controller but none of the inputs are coming through.

I have tried with Steam running, Steam shut down, and hid_steam unloaded on the Deck with the same result.
