Xbox 360 PC Controller doesn't work with XBMC 11 (using xpad)

Anybody (devs) here know if sometime support out of the box for this controller will come?

My controller works just fine...

I installed xbmc, plugged my controller and it doen't work..

Is it an actual XBox-Controller or a Xbox 360-Controller?
However... as said: The controller is working just fine over here.
You also do not give a whole lot of information about your system, which could help determine the issue.
Also - there is no application "xpad" which could emulate the controller - do you mean xpadder?
Why do you use it in the first place? XBMC should be able to run the controller without xpadder.
Did you try using a custom keymap?
Try this thread for help:

With xpad I mean this,
http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documenta...t/xpad.txt
is the module that ArchLinux (maybe Ubuntu too? they are all linux kernel powered distro) load by default when connecting my Xbox360 controller (for PC).

this is my laptop, I can test it also on my desktop if needed.

I did not use any custom keymap or configurations.

Ah... I see.
Try this guide:

Or try using the userspace driver:

A guide for Ubuntu:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xbox360Controller

but I want to use the kernelspace driver (it works out of the box and the userspace driver give me problems with some games).

So - the driver is currently working fine, only XBMC doesn't pick it up?*
Then follow my thread here - it explains to you, how you can setup your controller for usage with XBMC (i.e.: You have to build a custom keymap):

*=This is what I meant with "information": Please, if you want help, post everything regarding your problem:
What doesn't work, but should?
How doesn't it work?
What did you expect to happen instead?
Does it work with other programs?
A logfile. Please... always a debug-logfile if you want in-depth help.

You could, for example, have already posted way more information - that you already used the userspace-driver for example.
We're just guessing at this point.

moving trough menus by pressing digital buttons

I press and nothing happen

Quote:What did you expect to happen instead?

it moves in the menu

Quote:Does it work with other programs?

yes, for example games.

I tested xbmc some year ago with userspace driver (xboxdrv) and it worked but I had problems with games so, instead of switching drivers I decided to not use xbmc.
Now after the xbmc11.0 I tried it to test if it works with kernel space driver but It doesnt.

now I'm asking, is possible to have a menu in xbmc to configure the gamepad keys if it isn't able to autorecognize it?

That would be a feature suggestion - post it here, it will get more attention this way:

However - since there currently isn't such a menu, you could follow my link I posted to create a custom keymap.
