RCM jig not working

[nineanon]

My RCM jig just arrived from amazon here's a link for context: https://a.co/d/bEw2mYa

I cant get it to appear in RCM no matter what I try. To get the obvious out of the way I made sure the cable I was using works and supports data transfer, I am putting the RCM jig down the right joycon slot, I've made sure to hold the volume up button and press the power button I've also tried pressing both simultaneously, I made sure the pins are clean, I made sure my switch isnt patched, and I'm using tegra and I've ensured drivers are installed. The console doesnt turn on on when I press volume up and the power button but tegra doesnt recognize it as being in RCM. If anyone's ever had this happen please let me know how you fixed it. I am using linux mint and tegra seems to be working fine but at this point im wondering if that's the issue and I should try a windows PC.

Jig : OK
Right joycon slot : OK
Keeping vol + and then press power : OK

Linux should work.

You can try Rekado on an Android smartphone that supports USB-OTG (you might have to turn this setting on).

The Hekate or Atmosphere payload you need to inject come with the files you can download from the official repository :
https://github.com/ctcaer/hekate/releases
https://github.com/Atmosphere-NX/Atmosphere/releases

Needless to say but you need to put those files/folders on your SD card before using the Jig/rcm mode.

I may give it a try on my phone. I did make sure to put the files on the SD card as well. I formatted the SD card on my switch and then moved the folders over could that be effecting it? Thank you.
