Hi

Does anyone know of a good and noobfriendly guide to set up and configure the xbox 360 controller to xbmcbuntu? I allready have this PC wireless gaming reciever
Ive googled it, but Im very unsure what guide to follow...

As far as I know the wireless one is a bit dodgy. I have the corded one working no worries at all with xboxdrv (http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/xboxdrv/)

Just tried it again as I have one. Yes it does work however when you turn off your xbmc box, the controller stays on waiting for something to talk to it.
You then have to pull out the batteries just for a second to turn the controller off.

Thanks for the reply Smile

Im not sure what you mean, do you have the wireless controller and have it set up and working? If so, how did you do it?

Thanks

Btw: Your link doesnt work for me

Yup. Above link is exactly what I have done. Here is my keymap for my controller. It will have to be copied to /usr/share/xbmc/system/keymaps

Actually i figured out last night that it was working out of the box under ubuntu, but not under xbmc. I guess your keymap will do the job Smile

il report back how it goes..

Thanks

It might be working out of the box with xpad. xpad doesn't give all that many options, so its better to use xboxdrv.

Im looking forward to test this out tonight...

Thanks for all your help guys

I now have it working with both the snes emulator and within xbmc.. But how can I be sure it uses the xboxdrv and not xpadder. Why I ask is because before I installed xboxdrv I thought the responce was a little to slow, and it still is after the xboxdrv is installed.
