For background, the 360 wireless controller uses a receiver (also made by Microsoft) that plugs into a PC via USB. The controller syncs with the receiver by pressing a button on both. The "xpad" driver in the kernel seems to support most of its functionality just fine, but the light on the controller continues flashing forever after syncing with the receiver. Having a constant blinking light on one's controller is annoying and makes the user experience feel sloppy. As best I can tell, the version of the xpad driver in the mainline kernel hasn't been touched in a few years. Valve, creators of Steam and SteamOS, have done work on the driver recently and have fixed this bug. (Ubuntu PPA for this driver here: https://launchpad.net/~mdeslaur/+archive/steamos ) It would be really nice if 14.04 and all future versions of Ubuntu could use Valve's version of this driver, as it's the version being actively maintained. Without it, gamers trying out Ubuntu will get a low impression of Ubuntu's polish and support for gaming. --- ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.2 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC2: jpl 2694 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: jpl 2694 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: jpl 2694 F.... pulseaudio DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=d1b7d2f8-4929-4b69-8cc9-ecaa3857fa09 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-04-28 (272 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release amd64 (20130424) IwConfig: eth0 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions.
