I just installed mint 20 and I can’t figure out how to find drivers for this controller . Thanks
Is this a wireless controller?
Linux has native drivers for xbox controllers, through the xpad driver.
Wired
It should “just work”
One minute, I’ll grab my controller and see if I can recreate the issue.
No light and dead in American truck sim
So if you unplug the controller, open up a terminal and run the command dmesg -w, then plug in the controller, you should see some messages come up. Can you post them?
For reference, this is what I get when I plug in my controller:
