1 Remapping with xboxdrv
2
3 I have a couple of these old generic usb PlayStation 1/2 DualShock style controllers I picked up years ago, quite robust and still going strong. Unfortunately missing some modern controller buttons (like menu/guide) and features, but if you want to remap it with [[xboxdrv>>https://xboxdrv.gitlab.io/]] to pseudo-xbox360 for compatibility with certain games on Linux, well the following works nicely for me. Other controllers may need different mappings, obviously.
