Hi @wazzubrad,

Thank you for reporting this issue.

But this repo is only for the Ubuntu wrapper.

Can you open an issue at https://github.com/Grumbel/xboxdrv/ specifying the model you're using?

[wazzubrad]

raelgc:

I am slightly confused by your reply, possibly of my own ignorance. I am running Ubuntu 14.04 minimal. Should I be using the xboxdrv from Grumbel instead?

[raelgc]

The package I've created (ubuntu-xboxdrv) provides additional configurations, like a wrapper service, an entry on System Settings, etc. over xboxdrv package.

This error appears to be related to xboxdrv itself. So you need to report it to Grumbel, as he is the xboxdrv author.

[wazzubrad]

Okay, thank you for the advice. I will do that.

[wazzubrad]

I purged ubuntu-xboxdrv, removed the ppa, and then installed xboxdrv. The issue that I reported above does not present itself. Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to diagnose what is causing the original issue. Although, I would be willing to help in anyway that I can.

Hi @wazzubrad,

Thanks for investigating this.

So, keep, for now, only xboxdrv.

This is the command line the package is supposed to start xboxdrv (for 1 controller). Run as su or sudo:

xboxdrv --daemon --silent --dbus disabled --force-feedback --mimic-xpad --mimic-xpad-wireless --trigger-as-button

Can you face the same problem using this?

[wazzubrad]

Yes, that immediately causes Kodi (xbmc) to go haywire. It's as if my remote is making continous key presses.

[raelgc]

As just this (as su or sudo)?

xboxdrv --daemon --silent --dbus disabled
