I know this is about PCSX2 but since it's still on Ubuntu. But anyways I need help with uninstalling PCSX2 from my laptop. I am currently running the latest version of Ubuntu at the moment of me typing this. I'm a complete newbie to Linux literally just installed it today and I was trying to use PCSX2 but no matter what I do I couldn't get it to recognize my Xbox controller. I am running verison 1.7.0-0 GIT and before making this post I did look up on how to uninstall it and every time I entered in the command it told me too. It kept saying I didn't have it on my computer even though I do. I just need help with uninstalling it. Can anyone help?

This is proof that I actually do have it installed

This is what happens every time I try to install it


The output of which pcsx2 is empty.

and which PCSX2 is:

/usr/games/PCSX2
$ dpkg -S /usr/games/PCSX2
pcsx2-unstable: /usr/games/PCSX2

  • It is maybe a snap. – nobody Dec 01 '21 at 20:00
  • Please [edit] your question and add output of `which pcsx2` and `which PCSX2` to the original question. I prepared two TODO blocks for the actual output. – N0rbert Dec 01 '21 at 20:10
  • Open terminal, please, execute command `which pcsx2` , copy its output, paste to the question. Then do the same for second command - `which PCSX2` . – N0rbert Dec 01 '21 at 20:13
  • Oh ok well the first command you posted did nothing. But the second showed this "/usr/games/PCSX2" – Corny Dec 01 '21 at 20:14
  • Then we need output of `dpkg -S /usr/games/PCSX2` . – N0rbert Dec 01 '21 at 20:15
  • Did that and it showed this "pcsx2-unstable: /usr/games/PCSX2" – Corny Dec 01 '21 at 20:16

During chat session we discovered that it was installed from PCSX2 Daily Builds PPA. To remove the PPA and packages use below commands:

sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:pcsx2-team/pcsx2-daily
sudo apt-get autopurge pcsx2-unstable
sudo apt-get autopurge pcsx2
