      Hi,

      i reinstalled RetroPie 4.2, before i used v3.6 with xBoxdrv. My xBox360-Controller connects to the receivery, the LED is on, but it isn't blinking. But when i go to 'Configure Input' where i configured my Keyboard directly after install RetroPie doesn't detect the Controller. I can press every Button i want as long as i want but there is no reaction. in 'manage packages' xpad is installed, i also installed xboxdrv from binary but the result is the same.

      The Hardware (Raspberry, USB-Hub, Controller, Receiver) is the same i as before. I tried the Controller on my Hub and directly on the Raspberry Pi.

      Whats wrong?

        What version of the Pi are you using?

          I would recommend disabling Xboxdrv and only using the Xpad driver. There's an issue with the Xboxdrv and the Linux kernel(s) used since version 3.8.x of RetroPie.
