ParticipantI can’t possibly be the only one that has bought one of these and it works great on windows and picks up directly. On Retropie its a whole new ball game.. after 48 hours ive compiled a solution. I’m sharing this here down below :) Enjoy :D
1st of all type in “lsusb” in terminal.Note down xbox/logic3 ID mine was 0e6f:0301
Then do:
sudo apt-get install xboxdrv
Then do:
sudo nano /etc/rc.local
in rc.local put in the following:
xboxdrv –device-by-id 0e6f:0301 –type xbox360 -id 0 –led 2 –deadzone 4000 –silent &
sleep 1Press CTRL+X
press y
enterFor extra measurement do:
sudo /etc/init.d/xboxdrvPut in the following there:
#! /bin/bash

if [ $CONTROLLER_NUM -gt 4 ]; then
echo -e “\n$CONTROLLER”; exit 1;
fi
start-stop-daemon -S -q -x $DAEMON — $DAEMON_ARGS $CONTROLLER
# Workaround: xboxdrv daemon creates /dev/input/js[4-7] device files, if /dev/input/js[0-3] created on startup.

sleep 1
if [[ls /dev/input/js*
