But I don't understand much else. I have tried to write a test for the Nintendo HID driver for a while and think I have encountered this error as well. If I remember correctly, this timeout happens because the controller does not respond with the reply that the driver is expecting (or at least not in time). > And I am not sure where to go from here. Any suggestions? I'm a newbie as well but my understanding is that you would have to figure out what the controller is actually sending back and how it differs from what the driver expects. Then you might be able to either adapt the driver accordingly (if the behaviour of the device is similar enough to the official pro controller) or write a separate driver that can handle this controller ...
