10 I tried using the Xbox One controller on my Kubuntu 18.04
11 desktop both on native (i.e. Tomb Raider & Life is Strange),
12 and via Steam Play (i.e. Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 and Tekken
13 7). Steam itself, however, was able to see it. And running
14 lsusb shows that the system can see it.
16 I was looking into this problem, and I found out just now that
17 the [1]Xbox One controller is in the kernel . This [2]guide
18 from Make Tech Easier is outdated because xboxdrv doesn't work
19 unless it's the Xbox 360 controller (I'm out of AA batteries,
20 so I couldn't test, but the software recognized it), and the
21 [3]PPA they suggested to add aren't up-to-date, unless I'm
22 running Xenial or earlier.
24 What else am I supposed to do in order for me to enable it?

43 When using wired, it should be plug and play. Turn off
44 controller support in steam, it may be interfering. Games should
45 be able to talk with the controller directly.
48 Yes, the Steam Controller API breaks input with XBOX One S
49 Controller. Had to remove the Controller form Steam, since
51 For wireless I can recommend [1]xpadneo .

59 Thanks! Will give it a shot later.
60 Edjt: yes, that's the solution!
65 I have a bluetooth xbox one controller and in order to pair it I
66 had to add "bluetooth.disable_ertm=1" to the Grub command line.
67 USB though as others as stated it should work out of the box.
