      Running RetroPie v4.8 on Ubuntu on a lenovo m920q pc
      The Xbox 360 controllers are off brand. They came with their own USB dongle. Connection between controller and the dongle is perfect. No issues there. They connect and configure with emulation station. I can navigate all through RetroPie menu's and everything. However, when I open a game a notification comes up and says Xbox 360 controller not configured as the game loads. Then no connection.
      I've tried xpad drivers and xbxdrvr no luck l. Same issue every time.

      Any advice?

        Seems similar to https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/32891/ and (the recent) https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/32997/. Try modifying the .cfg file for your controller as explained in the 1st topic and start a game again.
