Solaar catches xbox controller

[Svenum]

Solaar catches my xbox controller and then he does not work. If I plug the controller in and THEN start solaar it works but the other way around not.

solaar -ddd:

2024-04-20 17:10:10,467,467    DEBUG [MainThread] hidapi.udev: Dbus event add Device('/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:c5:00.3/usb1/1-2/1-2.1/1-2.1:1.0/gip0/gip0.1/0003:045E:0B02.0020/hidraw/hidraw21')

solaar is the latest 1.1.12-rc1 release (with your last changes @pfps )

Please provide the total output of solaar -ddd for the case where the problem occurs.

[pfps]

There is a problem uncovered by the short output you provided. Solaar now includes a version of hid_parser but it is not installed correctly.

[pfps]

PR #2441 should correctly install the included hid_parser. It might fix your problem.

Seems to not fix it. But now the controller behaves the same even if solaar is completly closed. So maybe not solaar related.... I will try other tings. But here are anyway the logs maybe you could finde something:
solaar.log

[Svenum]

Ok, sorry for the wrong alarm. I disabled the xone and xpadneo kernel module. Now it seems to work with the builtin ones.

[pfps]

Solaar shouldn't do anything to non-Logitech devices (except determine that they are not Logitech devices and this shouldn't actually perform any interactions with the device).

[Svenum]

Yeah, it was a unfortunate coincidence. I closed solaar and it worked. And then I started solaar with -ddd and saw the messages while plugging the controller in. So I ment that this was the issue. The real issue is this: atar-axis/xpadneo#457 I think.
