Anyone run into steamos-xpad 3-9:1.0: xpad_try_sending_next_out_packet - usb_submit_urb failed with result -19 before? Any ideas to fix it?

@popsUlfr: This package is as git as it gets for the time being, unless Valve creates a single branch which never changes and always contains the newest packages. For now, brewmaster-4.1 seems to be the stable master, and brewmaster-4.1-proposed the testing master.
The tags appear to be completely useless, as the newest tag had it's last commit over a year ago.
For now, grabbing the brewmaster-4.1 branch is the most sensible choice, and the package should only ever need to be updated if there is a newer branch.

Wow I almost forgot about this package. If I recall correctly, I used the git commit in the past to ensure the package would provide the latest improvements since the latest tag at that time didn't even have the nice features.
I left the two variables at the top to quickly update a PKGBUILD whenever new stuff has been committed to the xpad driver.
@ProfessorKaos64: using the git tag 'brewmaster-2.98' (their naming scheme is a bit confusing, the branches match the kernel version and the tag the steamos distro version ??) for the non git package would be the best course of action I think. As far as I know, you can't get tarball for a single file and getting an archive of the whole kernel tree is a bit much imo.
A -git package might make more sense, people install this package to get the latest additions to the driver for their controller anyway.

This has been updated. By now I removed the commit-specific binding. It's now bound to the branch only. I don't really know why it was there in the first place, I just copied the package during the big AUR move.

I would be willing to help co-maintain if you want a second set of eyes/ears to catch new versions. If you are going to do a non "-git" package, you should be using git tags or tarball archives. "_xpadsteamoscommit" references a tree, not a commit. Therefore, each "upgrade" or clone of the upstream source with xpad.c changed is going to break this package.

How do I make this package work for kernel 4.8.12-2-ARCH??

Does anyone know if the XBox One Elite controller works with this driver? I believe it connects by way of bluetooth. Just checking before buying since Newegg doesn't accept returns for the controller.

@ThecaTTony Yeah, I fixed the issue. I just had to go in and turn on the xpad kernel module.

The upstream file has changed on August 4th, and as such now has a different sha512 hash. The new hash that sha512sum spits out is:
fc8ad5dbc7789ee7ffb94fc132e92f0db9472bdea6de2844473d41e508ee1effbc77ea861ec6c03524f1a903443f24ddc45f57e84c0197e03f017e47050f67c5
The PKGBUILD will have to be updated to accomodate for the change.
