Hello,

I have the following issue.

I'm using dolphin on Linux, and have a Bluetooth keyboard/mouse.

As described in https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?t...ough#Linux, I've added the necessary udev rules, and passthrough works perfectly.

The problem I'm facing is that I do not know how to exit a game after starting it.

Mouse and keyboard do not work anymore, so I cannot switch window or press alt+f4.

Is there a way to use only the wiimote?

It might be nice being able to use the wiimote home button for that.
Currently it opens a menu with "Wii Menu", and "Reset Options", and "Close".

Without a bar (all the games I own and play do not need it) I can only press the close button, which brings me back to the game.
Is it somehow possible to trigger the Wii menu button and exit the game/close the game window?
I too wanted to be able to exit the emulator from the Wii Menu button. However, I don't use linux
Here is what I came up with

Install the Wii Menu wad, and the the Shutdown Wad into the Nand, then replace the contents of the Wii Menu with the contents from the Shutdown

Perhaps it could work on Linux as well.
To exit games in Dolphin emulator using only the Wiimote:
Configure Wiimote controls in Dolphin settings.
Assign the Wiimote's Home button to emulate a keyboard shortcut or mouse action for exiting games, like Alt+F4.
Test the setup by launching a game and using the Wiimote's Home button to exit.
Fine-tune settings if needed in Dolphin's controller configuration menu.
