Next we need to create .sh script that starts xboxdrv.

sudo nano /home/osmc/start.sh

#!/bin/bash
    rmmod xpad
    modprobe uinput
    modprobe joydev
    
    /usr/bin/xboxdrv --config /home/osmc/xbmc.ini --silent --autofire RT=25 --autofire LT=25 --autofire du=200 --autofire dd=200 --autofire dl=500 --autofire dr=500 &

Give execute permissions for our script

sudo chmod 777 /home/osmc/start.sh
sudo chmod 777 /home/osmc/xbmc.ini

sudo nano /etc/rc.local

Add following record before the exit 0

/home/osmc/start.sh

sudo reboot
