I'm on a fresh manjaro linux. I tried with bluetooth too but I got this:
[error][daemon] 'hcitool' could not be found, make sure you have bluez-utils installed.
bluez-utils is installed.
Same issue. Fresh install under Ubuntu with KDE.
Same issue. Linux Mint 19
I found solution. You need to edit /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ds4drv/backends/hidraw.py like here:
https://github.com/chrippa/ds4drv/pull/105/files
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ds4drv/backends/hidraw.py
If you have python3.* installed, you may have installed ds4drv with pip3, so change the path slightly to /usr/local/lib/python3.*/dist-packages/ds4drv/backends/hidraw.py
where * is whatever version of Python 3 you're on
hcitool is an external tool you need to install.
Probably use bluetoothctl would make sense these days.
My controller shows: Sony Computer Entertainment Wireless controller, so maybe check case insensitive could help. Still I cannot connect by usb
