I have an XBox Wireless Controller, model #1914, and am running Ubuntu 24.04. I can get the controller to connect over bluetooth but it doesn’t show up as a joystick in jstest, evtest or steam. It doesn’t show up at all as a usb device in lsusb when plugged in. I’ve tired installing xpadneo but that didn’t seem to do anything. Any ideas?

this right here. it’s dumb as fuck, but has resolved 100% of my issues.

good luck getting it updated though, I had to use a windows VM and pass the USB through.
