GuestSo… I am at my wits end.
I have been trying to get this controller working for 2 days and I just can’t figure out what I am doing incorrectly.
I started with a brand new 1.10.1 download and followed all of the directions here:
https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/First-InstallationThen, I followed all of the directions here for enabling the controller:
Now, ES recognizes the controller and I can navigate with it, but the light continues to flash over and over again.
However, when I go to the panel and type in “sudo xboxdrv” i get this error:
Error couldn’t claim the USB interface: LIBUSB_ERROR_BUSY”It tells me to type in “rmmod xpad” and then run “sudo xboxdrv” again. Once I do, the single light comes on.
Now I have figured out that I need to blacklist xpad, but everything I’m finding online isn’t working; they just return different errors.
Thanks in advance!

ParticipantJust realized I didn’t list that I was using a WIRED 360 controller.

ParticipantWhat worked for me with a wire and wireless remote at the same time is method 3 of this

ParticipantI just did a install as you describe and am using the same controller. I just got this all working yesterday but started on Tuesday so I understand your woes. I did not run into the problem like you are experiencing but I’d like to try to help. I think your problem may lie with the USB bus activity itself.
A question that needs to be asked is please explain any and all USB peripherals that you have connected to the PI device. Hub (Powered or not), controller, keyboard, etc.
and run this command and report back the results.
lsusb
Maybe there is a conflict with another USB device on your bus or for some reason the bus is having power issues. If you are using a powered USB hub, check to make sure it is one that is certified for use with Raspberry Pi. Some feed power back into the bus and can cause some strange things to occur.

ParticipantThanks for the responses guys.
As far as the third option goes, I don’t really know how to use it; Being a total Linux noob. Is there a good walk-through on what I need to do?
I can’t run any commands, as I’m currently at work.
I only have my Wired Xbox360 Controller and Keyboard plugged in; No hub or anything.
Hopefully that helps!

ParticipantI have to pick this post up, as I am encountering a similar problem with my XBOX 360 controller, and tried about everything I could find so far.
I have a wired XBOX 360 controller (not an original one) connected to my Retropie (directly or through a hub, it doesn’t matter) as well as a keyboard. The led on the controller is constantly blinking, it still works on emulatorstation and on some emulators… It is available on /dev/input/js0 and I can map the buttons.
BUT: It’s not recognized by xboxdrv. Whichever method to configure it I chose, I only get a “no xbox controller connected” error message, and the led keeps blinking.
When I start xboxdrv with the “xboxdrv –device-by-id [ID]…” (from lsusb), the LED lights up, completely, not as player 1 or player 2. But I loose the possibility to enter commands in terminal (as xboxdrv is running) and cannot start emulatorstation anyway.
So, how can I get this controller to connect the way it is meant to be? (I installed retropie 1.10.1 from the SD Card image that’s available in the downloads section), since this version the controller is recognized by emulatorstation at startup, the previous version of retropie did not recognize it at all.
Here’s the dmesg output about the controller:
[ 3.738107] usb 1-1.3: new full-speed USB device number 5 using dwc_otg [ 3.875527] usb 1-1.3: New USB device found, idVendor=046d, idProduct=f301 [ 3.896032] usb 1-1.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 [ 3.917618] usb 1-1.3: Product: Controller [ 3.925537] usb 1-1.3: Manufacturer: Microsoft Inc.

And here’s the lsusb output:
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9512 Standard Microsystems Corp. Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp. Bus 001 Device 004: ID 413c:2003 Dell Computer Corp. Keyboard Bus 001 Device 005: ID 046d:f301 Logitech, Inc.
And this is what ls /dev/input gives me:
by-id by-path event0 event1 js0 mice
Any help is more than welcome ;)
Thanks in advance,

Maybe I did too much? I’m not sure what I am supposed to do.08/08/2014 at 18:12 #28449XFSmiles
GuestAlso, when I am in a game the A button takes me back to the menu and the RB button is pause

ParticipantDisable retroarch autoconfig or delete all files under following path:
/opt/retropie/emulatores/RetroArch/configsThen run “esconfig/basic input config”.
