After playing around with Steam I must say that in no case it was necessary to use anything else as the default kernel xpad driver. So this is just a simple reminder howto use packages that already prepared to use as system daemon. After installing the package xboxdrv from AUR use systemctl as root user to add a symlink to the service. For xboxdrv it looks like this:
systemctl enable xboxdrv
This will create a symlink from:
/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/xboxdrv.service
to
/usr/lib/systemd/system/xboxdrv.service
To blacklist the xpad kernel module you should take a look into:
cd /etc/modprobe.d/
If there is no blacklist.conf create one:
vi blacklist.conf
Write into blacklist.conf:
blacklist xpad
After the next reboot xboxdrv will do the job. | ||||||||||||||
