Try the steps from this post. Basically it involves two steps:
- Installing
xboxdrvfrom a PPA which contains a more updated version of the package:sudo add-apt-repository ppa:grumbel/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xboxdrv
- Blacklisting the
xpaddriver by addingblacklist xpadto your/etc/modprobe/blacklist.conf

Are you using it for Steam or something else? I ask because I have a first-party wired 360 controller which worked out of the box in Steam. When I installed xboxdrv, it stopped working on Steam.
– Waldir Leoncio
Dec 13 '13 at 20:01
Its a thirdparty 360 controller, its called rock candy and Im using it for Minecontrol for minecraft. It used to work fine when I used Afterglow which was made by PDP

Found out, logic 3 is the controller. Which was weird.. So I ended up finding a fix... but it still doesnt work so I guess it doesnt matter. I cant run xboxdrv in silent... and the buttons don't work at all in game.

Here was my solution.
1) Download the source code for xboxdrv from here:
http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/xboxdrv/
2) I used the 0.87 version: xboxdrv-linux-0.8.7.tar.bz2
3) Extract it using the tar command in a useful directory:
tar xvjf xboxdrv-linux-0.8.7.tar.bz2
4) Determine the USB ID of the controller by running watch lsusb and then plugging in the controller. The device should pop up note down the ID. Example: 0e6f:011f
5) In the src directory find the xpad_device.cpp file. (Not the hpp version!)
6) Open the file. Inside you should see a list of devices.
{ GAMEPAD_XBOX360, 0x24c6, 0x5000, "Razer Atrox Arcade Stick" },
{ GAMEPAD_XBOX, 0x045e, 0x0202, "Microsoft X-Box pad v1 (US)" },
{ GAMEPAD_XBOX360_GUITAR, 0x1430, 0x4748, "RedOctane Guitar Hero X-plorer" },
{ GAMEPAD_XBOX_MAT, 0x0738, 0x4540, "Mad Catz Beat Pad" },
7) Copy one of the entries and modify it to reflect your controller.
{ GAMEPAD_XBOX360, 0x0e6f, 0x011f, "Rock Candy Gamepad for Xbox 360"},
8) Install required libraries for compilation. For other distros these may be different. This list can also be found in the README.md file included with the tarball.sudo apt-get install
g++
libboost1.42-dev
scons
pkg-config
libusb-1.0-0-dev
git-core
libx11-dev
libudev-dev
x11proto-core-dev
libdbus-glib-1-dev
9) Uninstall xboxdrv if you already have it installed.sudo apt-get remove xboxdrv
10) cd to the extracted xboxdrv folder and run scons.
cd /home/foxyv/Downloads/xboxdrv-linux-0.8.7
scons
11) After scons is done configuring the build, run make.
12) When make is finished building, run sudo make install to install the compiled application.
13) Plug in your controller! You may need to restart the xboxdrv daemon using sudo service xboxdrv restart

could not install libboost1.42-dev, had to use libboost-dev, that worked. Everything went fine until I attempted to restart the xboxdrv service, I got "Failed to restart xboxdrv.service: Unit xboxdrv.service not found." Should this all have been done in a specific directory?
– Bus42
Sep 4 '17 at 18:45
This can be done in any directory. The make install should install the source code to the correct directories automatically as long as you have sudo access. You may want to re-attempt the installation if the service hasn't been installed.

3) Extract it using the tar command in a useful directory:
tar xvjf xboxdrv-linux-0.8.7.tar.bz2
4) Determine the USB ID of the controller by running watch lsusb and then plugging in the controller. The device should pop up note down the ID. Example: 0e6f:011f
5) In the src directory find the xpad_device.cpp file. (Not the hpp version!)
6) Open the file. Inside you should see a list of devices.
{ GAMEPAD_XBOX360, 0x24c6, 0x5000, "Razer Atrox Arcade Stick" },
{ GAMEPAD_XBOX, 0x045e, 0x0202, "Microsoft X-Box pad v1 (US)" },
{ GAMEPAD_XBOX360_GUITAR, 0x1430, 0x4748, "RedOctane Guitar Hero X-plorer" },
{ GAMEPAD_XBOX_MAT, 0x0738, 0x4540, "Mad Catz Beat Pad" },
7) Copy one of the entries and modify it to reflect your controller.
{ GAMEPAD_XBOX360, 0x0e6f, 0x011f, "Rock Candy Gamepad for Xbox 360"},
8) Install required libraries for compilation. For other distros these may be different. This list can also be found in the README.md file included with the tarball.sudo apt-get install
g++
libboost1.42-dev
scons
pkg-config
libusb-1.0-0-dev
git-core
libx11-dev
libudev-dev
x11proto-core-dev
libdbus-glib-1-dev
9) Uninstall xboxdrv if you already have it installed.sudo apt-get remove xboxdrv
10) cd to the extracted xboxdrv folder and run scons.
cd /home/foxyv/Downloads/xboxdrv-linux-0.8.7
scons
11) After scons is done configuring the build, run make.
12) When make is finished building, run sudo make install to install the compiled application.
13) Plug in your controller! You may need to restart the xboxdrv daemon using sudo service xboxdrv restart

could not install libboost1.42-dev, had to use libboost-dev, that worked. Everything went fine until I attempted to restart the xboxdrv service, I got "Failed to restart xboxdrv.service: Unit xboxdrv.service not found." Should this all have been done in a specific directory?

This can be done in any directory. The make install should install the source code to the correct directories automatically as long as you have sudo access. You may want to re-attempt the installation if the service hasn't been installed.

Here was my solution.
1) Download the source code for xboxdrv from here:
http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/xboxdrv/
2) I used the 0.87 version: xboxdrv-linux-0.8.7.tar.bz2
3) Extract it using the tar command in a useful directory:
tar xvjf xboxdrv-linux-0.8.7.tar.bz2
4) Determine the USB ID of the controller by running watch lsusb and then plugging in the controller. The device should pop up note down the ID. Example: 0e6f:011f

Please print your
lsusbwith and without the controller plugged in, or at least tell us if it really does not change.– Waldir Leoncio

The above is LSUSB with it plugged in pastebin.com/9aSv55am thats it unplugged

Does it show exactly the same thing without the controller?
– Waldir Leoncio
Dec 13 '13 at 20:18
Yep. I dont know what to do, as for that question, I have no hub, both of the ones I had in the past actually burnt out.
