Is there a way to make the xbox 360 controller vibrate? I've been googling and I have only found very old posts or suggestions for using some tweaks. There isn't an easy way to make the controller vibrate?
Thanks!
I've got the vibration to work in some games, but not all, by starting xboxdrv with the --force-feedback option and adding 'MODE=0666' to the /etc/udev/rules.d/ xbox controller file (on my system 40-xboxdrv.rules). Still, not all games seem to be able to use the vibration.
It's strange, because I think I used xboxdrv in arch with a ps3 controller, and driver worked (don't remember about rumbling).
I'll keep on searching for a solution, cause without vibration I feel I'm missing something.
I didn't do anything special to make it work.
For example, shadows of mordor is supposed to have rumbling? Because my gamepad doesn't rumble
Didn't try portal, but I'm starting to think that the lack of rumbling is more something related to the game itself, but it's strange that games that allow turning on/off vibration, don't rumble while playing.
