Xbox 360 gamepad is controlling the mouse!?

Hi everyone, scince the last kernel upgrade it seems like there is support for xbox 360 gamepads out of the box. I thought that I could just start playing games with my psx emulator but that was not the case. Once i connected the controller (I have the wireless one) it started to controll my mouse with one of the analog sticks. This might be a good thing for people who want to use their gamepads as a mouse but i'm guessing most people don't want that tongue Anyways, any idea how to turn this shit off?


My xorg.conf:

Re: Xbox 360 gamepad is controlling the mouse!?

I'd actually like to get my controller to control my mouse along with the clicking. How did you even manage to do it without joy2pad?

Re: Xbox 360 gamepad is controlling the mouse!?

I'm getting the same thing. Did you ever resolve this? I'm also using the wireless controller.
Also, how do I keep the green guide button from constantly blinking? And, how do you turn off the controller?
Thanks for the info!

And in case anyone cares, it works great with Cave Story. Just plug and play, no setup needed. Haven't tried it with anything else yet.

EDIT:
Found the answer to my own questions at...

No info on the mouse thing tho.

Nope, haven't found any solution yet but I would love to do so! Dmesg gives:

usb 4-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
usb 4-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
input: Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver as /class/input/input6
input: Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver as /class/input/input7
input: Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver as /class/input/input8
input: Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver as /class/input/input9
usbcore: registered new interface driver xpad
xpad: X-Box pad driver

If there is anything else needed to help me, i'll get it. smile

Edit:
Got it working now, use this: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Get … ns_Working guide and then it works big_smile

necroposting, but it's relevant.

had the same problem. Simply uninstalled package xf86-input-joystick and it doesn't act anymore as mouse. Don't know if this is bad and something eventually won't work.... using qjoypad right now and everything's ok

Re: Xbox 360 gamepad is controlling the mouse!?

Another option is to add

Option "StartKeysEnabled" "False"
Option "StartMouseEnabled" "False"

to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-joystick.conf
