        @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 \
                    --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 \
                    &
                

                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

                                            the event will change as things are plugged in and out

                                            so is you dont play to have a keyboard in there full time best to set if for event 0
