Hello all, Basically I need a guide to getting my wireless Xbox 360 controller working with steam (l4d2 and portal). The built in driver (xpad) works, but the buttons are wrong/not working. I've tried Xboxdrv from the AUR and with the right config (that I don't have) I know it will work. If someone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. -n30
