Xbox Bluetooth adapter

[twilit belfry]

Hey, I have an Xbox controller with a USB Bluetooth adapter. When I insert the USB into my front USB ports it's not detecting it (the OS is not playing any sound like on windows and the USB is not turning on) recently I found out that you have to turn on Bluetooth manually on Linux, so I tried to do that but running the Bluetooth app gives me an error but besides the app I think the main problem is the USB not getting detected🦔

[surreal spear]

try lsusb to see if it's detected
also inxi -Exxx

okie

no, doesn't seem like it

wait a sec

nah I think the mincrosoft Xbox acc thing is for minecraft

thanks for trying

[surreal spear]

the internet tells me the XBOX ACC device is a Microsoft Xbox Wireless Accessory Adapter. so it is detected

[twilit belfry]

oh

lemem see if it's still there if I unplug it

yeah, you're right

perhaps I'm missing a driver?

[surreal spear]

Xbox controllers are usually supported OOTB, but since you are using that weird dongle thing, I'm not sure.

you can see this command is a driver is loaded lsusb -v -s 045e:02fe

[twilit belfry]

what's that? "OOTB"

[surreal spear]

out of the box - not requiring additional steps for it to work properly

[twilit belfry]

the command doesn't do anything

[twilit belfry]

well, it was like that on windows

[surreal spear]

Im not at my pc so I took that from Google. try lsusb -t

[twilit belfry]

I just installed the xbox driver thing
sudo apt-get install xboxdrv

wrong ss

I have no idea what I am looking at, I guess it's a list of all my usb ports, front and back

[surreal spear]

is the unplugged?

[twilit belfry]

what are you looking at?

[surreal spear]

precisely ls - lists usb - usb
lsusb -lists usb (devices)

[surreal spear]

sorry. is the adapter unplugged?

[twilit belfry]

no

[twilit belfry]

thanks for explaining everything

[surreal spear]

since you installed that thing, reboot now for the changes to take effect

[twilit belfry]

sure

made sure to plug it in again after the restart

I don't see anything different

someone said I need this thing https://github.com/medusalix/xone

I don't know how to install stuff from github on linux

[twilit belfry]

they said XOW but the XOW github page said to upgrade to this

[surreal spear]

yeah I saw this GitHub too, but didn't want to recommend installing a seperate thing. the set up is pretty straightforward there, just scroll down to guide section and follow the commands

[twilit belfry]

not me totally asking ai for help ;-;

:O

IT TURNS ON !

it works now

thanks mate

[surreal spear]
