Wired Xbox One controller not working on Ubuntu 18.04 (Kernel 5.4)
Matthew Martinez
Whenever I try to connect my Xbox One controller via USB (I don't have a Bluetooth adapter or anything), it just vibrates briefly, and then nothing happens. It doesn't light up nor are any of the inputs recognised.
It's recognised when I type lsusb:
Bus 010 Device 007: ID 045e:02d1 Microsoft Corp. XBOX One Controller for WindowsHere's the output of uname -a:
Linux cobradabest-ubuntu-pc 5.4.0-42-generic #46~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 10 07:21:24 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/LinuxI've tried using different USB ports and cables, and it made no difference.
What do I do?

I fixed the issue, all I had to do was type "sudo modprobe xpad" in the terminal.
