steam controller is not working with x360 wireless controller
edgecrusher May 16, 2017
Hy everybody!

I already own two steam controllers and one xbox 360 wired controller, and everything worked just fine.
I bought new xbox 360 wireless controller so I can play Speedrunners with my kids (4 players local coop).
In Steam big picture mode all controllers work fine (Steam user interface), but in game (Speedrunners) Steam controllers are not working.
When I go to controller settings in Steam big picture, I can see that there are four x360 wireless controllers detected (but only one is plugged in).
Another strange thing is that x360 wireless is detected as generic gamepad, but x360 wired is detected as XInput controller.

System is Mint 18 (kernel 4.4).
