Incorrect button mapping in Big Picture Mode (XBOX 360 gamepad)

[ghost]

OS: Arch Linux x86_64
Gamepad: XBOX 360 Controller

"B" registers as "A" and "X" registers as "B".

LT and RT do not work at all. I can't even rebind them in the settings menu.

I have the same issue - Linux Mint 13 (Maya)

+1 same issue, but easy to fix inside of BigPicture. Just go to settings and reassign controller buttons

+1. Same issue for my wired XBOX 360 controller. Thank you for Arxcis' tip.

@Arxcis The triggers do not work. Even in the settings menu.

I can configure my Xbox 360 Wireless Controller, but steam does not save the settings, every time I start my PC, I have to reconfigure it again.

I have Logitech F510 with XInput mode (mimics xbox 360 controller). After 1st BP start i hade same problems but after configuration its gone.

The problem is that the xpad kernel driver seems to have problems with newer xbox controllers/receivers. One possible solution is to use the userspace xboxdrv: http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/xboxdrv/ this solves all problems with steam and most games for me. :)

[Alarmfifa]

Yep, xboxdrv is realy better, then xpad driver. Unfortunatelly, there are several difficulties to use it with more then one controller.
I create an issue in their github page and ask to add support of multiple controllers in one conf file.
By the way, the config file is the second difficult quest in xboxdrv configuration =)

[jacobmischka]

Yes, even though the xboxdrv driver is better, it still doesn't work with Big Picture Mode at all for me, as I'm still getting the X=B and B=A errors, and nothing else works really. Has this really not been addressed at all? Especially since they basically want you to use a 360 controller anyway.

[dmth]

Are there any proceedings on this one? Or has anybody ideas for as possible alternative fix?

[gdrewb-valve]

The next Steam client has some controller support fixes, but it's unclear if it will address your issue.

[shanefagan]

Hey gdrewb, it didn't fix it.

[slouken]

@shanefagan, can you report a new bug with the details of your controller, Linux version, hardware driver?

Thanks!

I haven't tried on my Linux partitions but the issue is also happening on the Windows Client.

[ben-en]

I'm having this issue on Arch, Kernel x86_64 Linux 4.2.2-1-ARCH. I'd be happy to poke around configs logs and the like upon request.

I noticed swapped buttons in Firewatch with xpad (Like LS for run doesn't work and RS for flashlight is LS)

The xboxdrv userspace driver only made things worse

[benpicco]

I see the same problem with my Original Xbox Controller connected via USB.

Reassigning buttons used to work at some point, then the option was gone and now it doesn't seem to have any effect at all.

In Ultimate Chicken Horse I get two cursors for my controller, both react to the same input (with the wrong mapping).

The mainline xpad driver and SteamOS xpad driver hardly differ these days
