Thanks! I added the patch to AUR now.

@marmis Patch works OK!. Thanks!

I also got a PKGBUILD mostly ready for v0.10 when it lands: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/marmis/xpadneo-dkms/-/blob/v0.10/PKGBUILD (dead link, see commit dc63eef9 instead)

Yeah, I noticed that too, but forgot to find a fix for it. The developer said it won't be fixed on v0.9 and he'll be pushing v0.10 early, instead.

I remade the 0.10 patch for v0.9.7, you can see it here: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/marmis/xpadneo-dkms/-/tree/hotfix/6.18 (dead link, see commit a387992e instead). It does build on Linux 6.18, but I can't test if it actually works since I fried my Xbox controller last month and haven't bought a new one yet. @Benzy can you test that patch? Otherwise we'll need to wait until v0.10 gets released.

The package is not installed over kernel +6.18. The dkms build breaks.

Patch in the developer git, applied when version 0.10 is released.

@naelstrof as per DKMS package guidelines, the package should not declare linux*-headers as dependencies, since they are already included in dkms. Also, check out Dynamic Kernel Module Support for more details.

xpadneo also depends on linux-headers, otherwise it fails to install the module with the following errors:

It has been working correctly after a "uninstall, reboot, install, reboot" process, though I don't know the reason. Thanks a lot for your help @marmis anyway

marmis commented on 2025-07-13 11:41 (UTC)

@vollowx I can still be firmware related, if you're missing linux-firmware-* packages for your hardware. AFAIK the most common Bluetooth hardwares are from Intel (linux-firmware-intel, MediaTek (linux-firmware-mediatek) and RealTek (linux-firmware-realtek).

Bluetooth: display as Xbox 360

That means it's (very likely) using the hid-xpadneo module.

(it was Xbox Series X yesterday)

Then it wasn't using xpadneo (probably falling back to the hid_microsoft module).

no rumbling at all, not to mention trigger force feedback, which I think means that it isn't controlled by xpadneo

Not sure about trigger force feedback, but rumbling should work on xpadneo (it does for me).

Wired: basic functions only, no features from xpadneo

Expected. Wired is handled by the (traditional) xpad module.

You should maybe try connecting your controller on another machine, preferably Windows or an Xbox. You could also update the controller firmware there, it might help with some issues. See Update your Xbox Wireless Controller. Funnily, that Microsoft page has a small mistake about their own controller: it says that "[the original Xbox Wireless Controller] has a small, circular 3.5-mm port on the bottom of the controller (if your controller has this port, you can only update via USB cable)", but it's the other way around: First Generation (2013) didn't have the phone jack and could not be updated wirelessly, all other versions (2015+) have both features.

I just reinstalled the whole system so it should not be the firmware problem. The situation now is
