+# Xboxdrv
+xboxdrv  is  a  driver  for  Xbox  and Xbox360 gamepads. It works by reading the raw data from the controller with the userspace library libusb and then passes the interpreted data to the kernel via uinput. This allows xboxdrv to provide regular joystick and event devices, which makes it compatible with all Linux software.

+
+### hardware requirements
+    xbox 360 wireless controller
+    xbox 360 wireless gaming receiver (support up to 4 controllers)
+    
+    Note: if you want to see a list of other supported devices

+    xboxdrv
+
+### uninstall requirements
+    xf86-input-joystick
+    
+    (might also be called: xserver-xorg-input-joystick )
+

+### disable services
+    sudo vim /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
+

+    blacklist xpad
+    
+    Note: add that line into the conf file to disable xpad so it will not interfere with the xbox controller
+
