# xbox-generic-controller
### Fix for generic XBox-like USB gamepads that are recognized but not functional.
This is an AUR wrapper for the [python script by dnmodder](https://gist.github.com/dnmodder/de2df973323b7c6acf45f40dc66e8db3) using a udev rule to run the script automatically when plugged in and blacklisting the `xpad` kernel module.
# Will this work for my controller?
If you have a generic XBox USB controller with vendorid:productid `045e:0283`, then probably yes. Plug in your controller, then run this to find out:
```
$ lsusb
```
I haven't tested this anywhere but my own laptop, so please [open an issue or submit a pull request](https://gitlab.com/ryanobeirne/xbox-generic-controller) if you have any problems.
# Install
## ArchLinux
### Using pacman
```
$ git clone https://gitlab.com/ryanobeirne/xbox-generic-controller
$ cd xbox-generic-controller
$ makepkg -si
```
### Using yay
```
$ yay -S xbox-generic-controller
```
You may need to reboot or run:
```
# udevadm control --reload
```
# Dependencies
`xboxdrv`
- A userspace driver for xbox controllers
`python3`
- The magic is in the [python script by dnmodder](https://gist.github.com/dnmodder/de2df973323b7c6acf45f40dc66e8db3).
`python-pyusb`
- A python USB library
`systemd`
- Uses a udev rule to run a script when the controller is plugged in
