I have the same controller and the same issue on Linux.

After some investigation, I have come to the conclusion that this issue is not caused by Controlify, it is instead caused by a bug in older versions of SDL3.

SDL 3.2.28, which Controlify loads by default on my system, fails to detect the gyro and rumble on my controller not just in Minecraft, but also in other games.

After forcing Controlify to load the latest SDL version 3.4.0 using the JVM argument -Dcontrolify.debug.sdl_natives_override=<path/to/SDL>, this issue was fixed.

So, in order to fix this issue you have to either:

• (Linux only) If possible, update your system's SDL to a recent version, like 3.4.0, or
• Download a recent version of SDL, and add the JVM argument -Dcontrolify.debug.sdl_natives_override=<path/to/SDL>. Instead of <path/to/SDL>, write the actual path to SDL's .dll file (if you are on Windows) or .so file (if you are on Linux).
