Removed manually added product and vendor ID variables since the were not generated by "Save Controller Profile". "The linuxraw driver uses an interface that does not provide product and vendor IDs, just a name - see JSIOCGNAME. I am not sure where the existing linuxraw autoconfig values came from, but since driver always sets these as 0, those extra identifiers can not help in matching the correct profile..." - libretro/RetroArch#16828 (comment)
# The autoconfig file remains enabled by default, even though the widely-used Nintendo Switch Pro Controller (nintendo-hid version) file is also active. Generally, we disable autoconfig files that create conflicts with input_driver and input_device. However, since linuxraw relies on input_device, and the variable values differ between the HID and non-HID versions of this controller, both autoconfig files can coexist without issues.

… Pro Controller (default-off).cfg After re-evaluation, the name was corrected. The "Nintendo Switch Pro Controller" is utilized for Bluetooth connections.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Could you clarify why we are adding this one when linuxraw/Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.cfg already exists?
It looks like the only difference is the A/B flipped. RetroArch uses the retropad scheme:

…witch Pro Controller (non-HID) (default-off).cfg Added "(non-HID) " to the filename

I added "(non-HID) " to the filename for this PR.
That is incorrect. The HID file have completely different bindings. Have a look at: https://github.com/libretro/retroarch-joypad-autoconfig/blob/master/linuxraw/Nintendo%20Switch%20Pro%20Controller.cfg |
