linux

Input System

DirectInput API

Many games pre-2015 used the DirectInput API.

wine/proton	disable driver within wine, use xpadneo
steam native	probably fine?

Microsoft Xinput

In steam's controller settings, check Xbox Configuration Support and you're done.

wine/proton	should be fine
steam native	should be fine

Driver

The linux kernel has a builtin module: xpad for gamepads.
Eventually this may work, but some game input systems map gamepad buttons poorly.

Base Xbox Drivers

xpad	all	1x wired	kernel builtin gamepad driver
steamos-xpad	all	1x wired	modified xpad driver with modified keymap

TODO:
this should really be a matrix of checkmarks...

bluetooth

You will need to bluez#Disable ERTM Disable Bluetooth ERTM, but otherwise pairing is normal.
For example, see bluez.

wired

No luck here yet. apparently works out of box now.

windows

microsoft wireless adapter

Did not connect, unplugged/replugged the adapter while controller was in discovery mode and it just worked.
repeatable? IDK. I don't think I've had this issue before..

bluetooth/wireless

Start > bluetooth:
   - Add Bluetooth or other device:
       - bluetooth  (if connecting over bluetooth)

wired

Just plug it in. good to go.
