I just got myself a SNES30 8bitdo controller and am having issues getting it to pair with my machine. Here is some info on what I’ve gone through. I will admit up front I am not very fluent with Linux so I’ll do my best to give as much pertinent info as possible.
I followed the setup procedure found here: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Setting-up-a-Bluetooth-controller
I am able to see the controller when I run hcitool scan. When I run the pairing command:
sudo bluez-simple-agent -c DisplayYesNo hci0 01:06:F3:71:60:0F
I get:
ERROR:dbus.proxies:Introspect error on :1.3:/: dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
Traceback (most recent call last):

The controller is updated to the most recent firmware.
I greatly appreciate any help, as I said I am a novice and really have no clue what’s going on here.
