[Linux ] direct connect always unchecks. GC adapter problem - DeyBadger - 10-30-2015

Good day,

I am using a GameCube controller adapter from Nintendo

on Ubuntu 14 LTS

I recently installed Dolphin Dolphin 4.0-7840 (netplay build) for super smash bros.
using this guide:
https://www.smashladder.com/blogs/view/264n/2015-09-28/dolphin-build-7840-for-linux

then I mad a udev rule as described here :
https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=How_to_use_the_Official_GameCube_Controller_Adapter_for_Wii_U_in_Dolphin#Linux


when I start dolphin and go to the gc controller settings I can check "direct connect" (which is advised in a guide on smashladder) but it is always unchecked if I reopen the menu.
the controller inputs are not shown in the menu nor are they magically recognized in the game.
