Xbox 360 not detected, linux

Open jver422 opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Hi, I'm using the latest Ubuntu, forge, and minecraft Java edition. I've just downloaded the latest controllable version.

In the settings nothing appears in the select a controller window. The controller was on when launching minecraft and it tests perfectly on game pad tester. I use these controllers to play on multiple emulators so I know they work. They are Xbox 360 wireless controllers with a wifi dongle.

Is there something I could have done wrong to get this result?

I'm using MultiMC to load Forge, the Controllable mod, and launch Minecraft on Linux Mint, also with an Xbox 360 controller and wireless USB dongle. Everything seems to work, except attacking with a sword (which is a known issue, I think addressed in the next update, 1.18.2). I had to grab MultiMC deb file from their website (also JDK 17 from Oracle). I'm still learning Mint, and I'm sure there's a way to get it from repositories--I just found the website d/l first. Just providing another Linux perspective in case anything I did helps. (Where did you get Forge?)

Same issue here, Using Pop_OS! 22.04

Minecraft is installed via Flatpak from Pop_Shop, also tried the binary file from minecraft.net

Using an Xbox S Controller, which works in many games and is recognized by my system, but the list in the mod is empty

Fixed it!

Works after adding the binary launcher to steam, getting into Big Picture Mode, allowing the Controller for the game, then starting the game over big picture and it should show up as steam virtual gamepad

That's a workaround not a actual fix.. this issue still needs to be resolved for Linux, I have the same issue on Manjaro Gnome but with a xbox one controller via bluetooth and even on Steam big picture mode it isn't working. It can see the Steam input but it doesn't work so this issue a workable work around. Don't say it's a OS issue because my controller works just fine, this mod is just sadly broken for Linux users.
