I tried using the Xbox One controller on my Kubuntu 18.04 desktop both on native (i.e. Tomb Raider & Life is Strange), and via Steam Play (i.e. Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 and Tekken 7). Steam itself, however, was able to see it. And running lsusb
shows that the system can see it.
I was looking into this problem, and I found out just now that the Xbox One controller is in the kernel. This guide from Make Tech Easier is outdated because xboxdrv doesn't work unless it's the Xbox 360 controller (I'm out of AA batteries, so I couldn't test, but the software recognized it), and the PPA they suggested to add aren't up-to-date, unless I'm running Xenial or earlier.
What else am I supposed to do in order for me to enable it?
Edit: Solved
I have a bluetooth xbox one controller and in order to pair it I had to add "bluetooth.disable_ertm=1" to the Grub command line.
USB though as others as stated it should work out of the box.
