        @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

                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

                    sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv \
                        --evdev /dev/input/event2 \

                        --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 \
                        &
                    

                    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

                        @escc1986 ok now that is gone. we can start
                        with that in there is would override everything setting that the pie uses.

                        we want it for a certain game.

                                  --evdev is the code the controller sends out
                                  --ui is what we want the controller to do.

                                  so exampler from mine
                                  i had the a key mapped as the left mouse button

                                  --evdev-keymap KEY_#304=a
                                  
                                  --ui-buttonmap a=BTN_LEFT

                                        the buttons are the easy part. the dpad is tricky for me.
                                        so i think work on getting the other buttons mapped. as i do some playing on my end

                                          sorry to be a headach ...

                                          i guess the thing that confuses me the most is the steps

                                          like there is alot of steps unless it can be simplfyed somehow

                                          yes the d pad is what confuese me alot too
