Dont know if you guys would want this but it works great for me.

i use xbian on my Raspberry pi and i was surprised to see that the wireless controller for 360 didnt work out of the box.
if you want to use it you have to do a little configuring. youll need xboxdrv but thats not in the default repo, so you can either cross-compile it for arm or do what i did:

Code: Select all

# nano /etc/apt/sources.list
add deb

Code: Select all

http://archive.raspbian.org/raspbian wheezy main contrib non-free rpi 
to the bottom of the list save and exit (ctl+x)
the run

Code: Select all

# apt-get update
(this took a while for me cause my internets slow af)
then a quick

Code: Select all

# apt-get install xboxdrv
gets you the driver. you have to run the --detach-kernel-driver flag on it tho.


also i dont use keymap.xml for input, i use a xboxdrv config file
