## Controller and Bluetooth Information
<!-- Also follow these steps to create addition information
     about your Bluetooth dongle and connection: -->
standard bluetooth package tumbleweed
<!-- First, disconnect the controller. -->

<!-- Run `sudo btmon | tee xpadneo-btmon.txt` and connect the controller. -->

<!-- Run `dmesg | egrep -i 'hid|input|xpadneo' | tee xpadneo-dmesg.txt`. -->

<!-- Run `lsusb` and pick the device number of your dongle. -->

<!-- Run `lsusb -v -s## | tee xpadneo-lsusb.txt` where `##` is the device
     number picked in the previous step -->

<!-- Attach the resulting files, do not bundle the files into a single

Guide+A, +B, +X, +Y is reserved by xpadneo. I will make this behavior optional in the next driver version.

Thats nice i thougt that i was an Idiot because of this i've tried everything for a short time i thought about this could BE the Problem but i couldnt find the setting now i know it dosent exost thanks for the Help and sorry fory Bad Englisch i'm Not a nativ speaker. Bug thanks dou you know when the next Driver Version gets realesed so Just a rough time frame?

[kakra]

No plans yet... I tried to release it during the last year but lacking a lot of time. I'll try to get it ready in the next two months.

The feature is mentioned here:
https://github.com/atar-axis/xpadneo?tab=readme-ov-file#profile-switching

There's an ongoing PR that merges mouse emulation, which will also use Guide + a hotkey to switch mouse mode on and off: #282

If you don't need these functions, the kernel will support your controller out of the box with proper Steam support - no xpadneo needed (this was different some years ago).

ok thanks

[powl999]

i have the problem my controller gets recognized by everything exept for steam without the driver

[kakra]

Interesting... I never heard someone having problem with only Steam detecting the controller.

[powl999]

Me to thats the Problem i cant find a sulution and i cant Code If u want to See someblogs or Something Just ASK me uonlynmust say me what to do(:

Try disabling Steam Input controller support in the Steam client and see, if that helps. You don't need it for games to support Xbox controllers, you just need it to remap controls. I'm running most games without it. There are a few games (mostly Playstation ports) which need Steam Input to detect a controller, you can enable that per game in that case.

If it still doesn't work, run gamepad-tool (it's part of SDL, I think, but you may need to install it from an extra package). See, if it detects your controller. If it does, be sure to not save any remappings. Steam Input internally uses SDL, so if gamepad-tool sees the controller, Steam should, too. Also, Proton internally uses SDL for controllers, or evdev as a fallback. If rawhid is present, it is preferred for some devices.

If even the tool doesn't show your controller, run evtest and see, if it lists your controller. Select the controller from the list to test if it sees button presses and axis movements. Proton should see this list of devices as part of its evdev fallback.

rawhid mode is not currently supported with xpadneo (mappings may be wrong if enabled). There's not test utility for it.

Disabling Steam Input forces Proton to use SDL or evdev directly without going through Steam Input virtual controllers. It's the mode xpadneo was originally developed for.

I've found a problem related to this. If you disable profile switching (mode 1), the QAM menu shortcut works fine on the xbox elite (guide + a) however it does not work for the standard series x/s.
