            @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 \
                    &

                  @ExarKunIv also what difference did you see with the scummvm and the scummvm-sdl.
                  i had both on mine and i did not see anything different

                    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

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

                            --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

                            with that in there is would override everything setting that the pie uses.

                                      --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
