http://askubuntu.com – I think I screwed something up in a HID library when trying to install a PS3 controller not long ago, as the PS3 controller never worked right, and now when I try to connect an Xbox 360 controller, the mouse cursor jumps to the top-left corner of the screen and neither it nor the keyboard will respond. any idea what I ought to purge to fix this? thanks!

Stories similar to Mouse cursor freaks out when Xbox 360 controller connected

I have my PS3 controller connected through USB and while that works fine, no applications seem to support its keymap. So my question is whether it's possible to make it emulate an xbox controller similar to what MotionInJoy does on Windows?

I have done some googling but to no avail.

I couldn't find the answer elsewhere on the net, or this forum, so far!

I recently purchased a few USB OTG cables for my HTC One S, £0.59 off Amazon including postage, bargain. I can plug in a mouse, keyboard, and using a powered USB hub I can use my external hard drive with the mouse and keyboard.

However, an XBOX 360 controller simply doesn't work.

I am borrowing an Xbox 360 Afterglow controller from a friend (just for fun, no real reason,) and I got it working with Mari0, but I'd like to see if I can get it working as a mouse/pointer device.

Please don't tell me to "Just google ___," or "try searching these forums for ____." I would like instructions and a link.

Features: * Mouse curser movement * left and right click support * Middle mouse button scroll * Remote keyboard input * PC/Mac

My logitech f310 doesn't even work does anyone know if I need a driver to make it work.

I got an emulator for gameboy advance and some roms but don't want to use it till I have my controller working I installed joy2key and various drivers through the ubuntu software center and synaptic package manager.

When I game in Windows, I use MotionInJoy to emulate a 360 controller using my PS3 controller via bluetooth. All is well, at least, when the game has native controller support.

If I'm playing a game through Wine that has native 360 support, it generally doesn't recognize any part of the PS3 controller.

Hi, got my OTG cable today and tried plugging in my wired xbox controller. The lights flash on it but its not recognising any button presses. Anyone know if it works?

if not would a cheap USB controller work?

I have seen other answers for previous Ubuntu versions that did not solve my problem. For 11.10, what software is available to Install and operate the Kinect controller from the XBox.
