Gamecube Adapter for Wii U and PC not detecting - Smojo10 - 10-19-2021

Hi. https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=How_to_use_the_Official_GameCube_Controller_Adapter_for_Wii_U_in_Dolphin tells me that on Linux, I need to put a udev rule in the file /etc/udev/rules.d/51-gcadapter.rules . I have tried searching it up but cannot find it. Where can I find this. I;m tired of trouble shooting a damn USB adapter and i just want to use a controller.

Did you compile Dolphin yourself with libusb support, or are you using a prebuilt package by someone else (like from a package manager)?

I followed all the steps on https://dolphin-emu.org/docs/guides/building-dolphin-linux/ and in the end when i ran dolphin-emu, it just said it wasnt istalled, so I just did sudo apt install dolphin-emu to download it, and it still does not detect the adapter.

I just tried compiling it but one of the last steps sudo make install just came oult as an error. Do I need to overwrite some flags with [color=#c7254e]cmake .. -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=gcc-7 -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=g++-7 '?[/color]
[color=#c7254e] [/color]
When I built it, I found the udev file in the files, but I just cant run dolphin for some reason.
