Specifically Arch. I found a GitHub page for xbox360wirelesschatpad but the installation instructions are for Windows. I know LibUSB is available but the vjoy driver doesn't seem to be. I feel like there's probably some comparable package.

There might also be an alternative way to do this all together. There seem to be a few methods of doing this on Windows using third party applications.


I am mostly doing this for the novelty of it but I feel like it could be useful for navigating my PC from my couch or responding to messages through Steam.

It seems like this whole process is pretty plug and play with the Xbox One controller and it's chatpad but that's not what I am after.

Hey i just saw this on my way home but try running the logs through an ai like blackbox it has a JavaScript trained one specifically. I have been using it for other issues and shits fucking cool

Edit: https://www.blackbox.ai/share/14a4c80f-0506-4cc7-8508-9810d71acb72 here's the response it gave me might help you more I'll try it out when I get home as well I don't have a pad but if it builds should work? Right? ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks for the suggestion. It seems like that would have made upgrading the packages a lot easier.

Unfortunately after applying the fixes it suggests it seems to kind of send me in a circle. It did say at one point it might be a Python issue.

So I asked the python one what I should do well i just posted your whole comment lol and it showed me how to upgrade a python script doesn't look easy but it also told me about 2to3 which is a command to do it automatically? Here's the link I could find on how to use it https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20458011/how-to-use-2to3-properly-for-python#20458067
