Is there something additional to run after modifying this line in xpad.sh? Changing the line and rebooting doesn’t seem to resolve the issue

@the_loaf You'll need to re-install the xpad driver package from RetroPie-Setup (after you've made the modification) and then reboot.

@mitu oh thank you

It seems that they have fix the bug, but when I try to install the new version I have an error Failed to install xpad

log file

[mitu]

@windg Yeah, it's a code error. Left a message on the issue with the compilation error.

[Simrose]

I also can't install it says failed to install xpad.

I tried remove and install but same thing happens I will try above method.

It shows installed via unknown

And no info in package ver info

Changed as advised above and installed the older version and works
Thanks

@simrose If you have a genuine Xbox controller, you can remove the driver and you can still use it - you just need to re-configure it first in EmulationStation.

@mitu I am using a ps4 controller so I probally don't need it at all? :-)

Got also the xpad compile error. Both shoulder buttons of my xpad were not recognized. After commit (389e25) all is fine again.

[mitu]

@tiedemann What controller are you using ?

They fixed the code now, can you try updating to the latest version and see if the controller(s) work ?
