      @cynital You'll need a browser to upload the file, so yes, use a PC. Transfer the file with SCP, or if you're using File Shares, copy the file to the ROMs folder and get it from the roms file share:

      cp /tmp/dmesg /home/pi/RetroPie/roms

                @cynital How did you install RetroPie ? Did you use the image provided on the RetroPie website or other image ? Have you installed anything else on it ?
                If you're not familiar with RetroPie or Linux, I'd suggest to start with a known good system - use the official image and install it from scratch. After that, update RetroPie and all packages and re-try to add your controller.

                    @cynital If you installed the official image, I guess it's ok to keep it like this, but unless you're able to provide some logs/diagnostic info, I'm afraid I can't help you.

                        @cynital OK let's try again. To get the system log

                        dmesg > /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/dmesg.txt
                        

                        Look in the roms folder via the file share on the PC and the dmesg.txt file should be there. Upload it to pastebin.com.

                                @cynital OK, let's give it another shot. Reboot, plug in your controller and try to see if it work. Obviously, it won't work - as you reported. Exit Emulationstation, then execute the following command at the terminal

                                dmesg | nc termbin.com 9999
                                

                                The command will automatically upload the log and will print an URL. Copy that URl and paste it here.

                                    @cynital From the looks of it, you're using xboxdrv - remove it and reboot. Then

                                    • update the RetroPie script
                                    • update the xpad driver from the RetroPie driver section.

                                    Reboot and then see if you can configure both your controllers.

                                            The controller appears right now, but I don't think it's picking the correct Xbox driver (xpad) - it's not recognised as an Xbox controller.
