It’s all in the manual. It took me tons of trial an error to get these right lol. I’m not a developer, but I do test crap for a living.

As you can see xboxdrv is extremely flexible. It is possible to create scripts that restart xboxdrv with the correct .cfg file so that you could avoid having to use the xbox button at all, which is what the init.d start up method is good for. But I’ve never been able to get that to work correctly.

I think maybe because of the way xboxdrv handles the remapping of keys, this doesn’t work for every emulator. For example, the remapped escape key does not work in standalone PPSSPP to bring up the emulator menu. I still have to use my keyboard for that. It’s certainly a start towards a keyboardless setup though.
