I am trying to control my home lab robot using a BT Gamepad. I found a library here: > **[GitHub - Ar-Ray-code/ps\_ros2\_common: Library for ROS2 that guarantees...](https://github.com/Ar-Ray-code/ps_ros2_common)** > > Library for ROS2 that guarantees compatibility in variables of PS controllers of each generation. For SONY(R) Dualshock3, Dualshock4, Dualsense(For PS5) - GitHub - Ar-Ray-code/ps\_ros2\_common: Libra... That supports my PS controller. The problem is no matter what I try I cannot see to install the “joy” pkg? ```auto ubuntu@ubuntu:~/ros2_ws$ sudo apt install -y ros-foxy-joy* Reading package lists...

The problem was: ```auto source /opt/ros/foxy/setup.bash # I did not source this one source ~/ros2_foxy/ros2-linux/setup.bash source ~/ros2_ws/install/setup.bash ``` Guess I am confused which ones need sourcing when and will have to learn more about this! ---

Hi @Teknetik , welcome to the community! I am glad you found the solution to your problem. The reason why you have to source `/opt/ros/foxy/setup.bash` is because that is where the ROS installation is in your system, and the `joy` package was installed as a binary (`sudo apt install -y ros-foxy-joy*`). All packages installed this way end up in that directory. The other workspaces are created manually, so you would source those when you want to work with packages that you make in them. ---
