      Does anyone know which controller drivers are loaded by Retropie in an initial setup?

      I ask because I was messing about in the driver's section and now ES is telling me that I have a gamepad connected when there are none.

      Thanks!

        @batesman an initial set-up from what ? From a manual install or via a premade image - Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

        Which drivers do you have enabled ?

          Sorry, Buzz. I didn't incorporate all the extra info because I thought I was asking a straightforward question.

          I installed the image onto my SD card. I then ran the update utility last night which installed all the controller drivers. Oops.

          I'm just wondering which drivers are enabled by default during a fresh install via image so I can remove the superfluous ones.

          Thanks!

            @batesman Only the xpad driver is enabled on the RetroPie pre-built images. If you don't use an xbox/360 controller you don't need that either.
