          Yes now that you have the driver installed you need to make the mapping file and get it to launch.

          So take a look at the post I have my first post. Once you find my name you see me explaining the steps you need to do.

          I'm at home now. But I'll be able to help more tomorrow once I'm back at work

              ok , i ran into a problem while following steps ... :

              Now that we have all the event codes from the controller, we can begin mapping them to the virtual XBox360 controller in a command that will be added to /etc/rc.local so that it may launch along with RetroPie as it boots up. Below is a template that illustrates the command format. In essence, this command is simply mapping each of the event codes from the physical controller to the virtual XBox360 controller that xboxdrv will create. The specific information gathered from the steps above are marked with [•]. A legend for the virtual Xbox 360 controls can be found here.

              sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv
              --evdev /dev/input/by-id/[•]
              --silent
              --detach-kernel-driver
              --force-feedback
              --deadzone-trigger 15%
              --deadzone 4000
              --mimic-xpad
              --evdev-absmap ABS_[•]=x1,ABS_[•]=y1,ABS_[•]=x2,ABS_[•]=y2,ABS_[•]=lt,ABS_[•]=rt,ABS_[•]=dpad_x,ABS_[•]=dpad_y
              --evdev-keymap BTN_[•]=a,BTN_[•]=b,BTN_[•]=x,BTN_[•]=y,BTN_[•]=lb,BTN_[•]=rb,BTN_[•]=tl,BTN_[•]=tr,BTN_[•]=guide,BTN_[•]=back,BTN_[•]=start
              &

              My Controller Map :

              Up / Down = ABS_HATOY

              Left/Right = ABS_HAT0X

              Select = BTN_TL2

              Start = BTN_TR2

              B = SOUTH

              A = EAST

              So I Fill in The Blanks

              and i get an Error ... not sure what i did wrong ... if you could help me

              pi@retropie:~ $ sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv \

                  Can you post what you get for the following

                  cat /proc/bus/input/devices ( it will show all your connected devices

                  evtest /dev/input/event[•] will show all your buttons for your controller (event)(is where you put you controller number)

                  Sorry for the format not being right. I'm on my phone

                              @escc1986 ok im taking a look at everything that you gave me. it does seems like you have all the info for us to get this up and going. i just need a bit to remember how to go about it this way.

                              i go about using xdrv a different way now, but we will get you up and going.

                                  @escc1986 step 1

                                  remove this from rc.local

                                  sudo nano /etc/rc.local

sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv \
    --evdev /dev/input/event2 \
    --silent \
    --detach-kernel-driver \
    --force-feedback \
    --deadzone-trigger 15% \
    --deadzone 4000 \
    --mimic-xpad \
    --evdev-absmap ABS_HAT0X=dpad_x,ABS_HAY0Y=dpad_y \
    --evdev-keymap BTN_SOUTH=a,BTN_EAST=b,BTN_[•]=x,BTN_[•]=y,BTN_[•]=lb,BTN_[•]=rb,BTN_TL2=back,BTN_TR2=start \
    --dpad-only \
    --ui-axismap lt=void,rt=void \
    --ui-buttonmap tl=void,tr=void,guide=void \
    &

                                  still working on the rest

                                    @ExarKunIv also what difference did you see with the scummvm and the scummvm-sdl.
                                    i had both on mine and i did not see anything different

                                      Sorry if this is a Noob Question

                                      To delete that file

                                      I go to directory

                                      /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv

                                      Sudo rm xboxdrv

                                      Is that correct ?

                                      About the other Scumm I did experience freeze ups and I'm not sure why , but in the end I guess I just want to learn how to configure xboxdrv as a mouse ... it's about learning then having fun by playing after I appreciate the help and learn and then play the game

                                          just use sudo nano /etc/rc.local and remove

                                          this is what you have in your txt of what you did.

                                          as for me i have not played much with either. but im finding that with my 8bitdo pro 2 the scummvm already has my analog stick mapped as a mouse. not sure how.i think cuz it now supports it as a mouse from defult now that im looking into it
