cynital

So i removed xpad, installed it again, updated it (i got the command line from git hub i dont know if its the latest version) I tried everything but the afterglow prismatic xbox controller wont still show up when i press a or anything but when i start a game and plug the controller in this shows up, look at the link https://m.imgur.com/qXjQR7G
“generic xbox pad not configured” it knows its a controller so why doesn’t it let me do the key binds

I thought maybe you were having multiple issues, but it appears that this is already be on the radar to be examined as early as today noted here.

Power Supply used: Normal phone charger

Just a heads up; unless that power supply is rated as specifically being 5v 2.5a, you're going to run into power issues eventually.

cynital

ok but have any idea why it wont let me config?

@cynital

I wouldn't want to speculate outside of it being related to the driver issue until it's ironed out.

cynital

@buzz i put everything on the top of the post

BuZz

Does the controller configure ok in EmulationStation initially? Can you navigate the ES menus
?

cynital

@buzz no after i updated every thing and use my key bored to go input the controls for the controller, it tells me to press a on the controller but it wont do anything, i cant config the key binds or anything, it says its supported so idk whats going on

cynital

@BuZz ok so when starting the system when it loads, every thing says [ OK ] but it says [ failed ] to start load Kernel Modules. see 'systemctl status systemd-modules-load.services' foe details

BuZz

@cynital and what's the output of that command if you type it in?

mitu

@cynital A normal phone charger is not an appropriate power source for a Raspberry PI. Please use a proper power adapter to power up your system.

cynital

@buzz that the module failed ill take a screen shot later but do you have any idea or fix

cynital

@mitu ok whats a proper power supply?

BuZz

@mitu Ah I didn't notice that - yeah could be power related.

@buzz is this ok? https://www.amazon.com/Black-Mini-Portable-Charger-Built/dp/B0742NFM65/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1529881809&sr=8-6&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=pocket+juice&dpPl=1&dpID=31-lL4sd5qL&ref=plSrch im going to use it to make the pi portable so i could use it for now

cynital

@buzz also if its not power related could it be something else or would you have to see the screenshot
