I bought the Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller,
Installed the xboxdrv driver
I also installed sysfsutils and added to the file /etc/sysfs.conf the line:
/module/bluetooth/parameters/disable_ertm=1
(as it was suggested by some guide)
I even installed xpadneo
However when I try to connect to the device, I get an error: "Connection Failed: le-connection-abort-by-local":
maxim@Maxim-HQ:~/Games/xpadneo$ sudo bluetoothctlAgent registered

How can I fix it?

Updating them is the trick, though - I had to take mine to the house of a relative who has an Xbox! :tongue:
But still have the very same issue.
It's a new device that I bought today.
I removed xboxdrv, rebooted the machine, but still the same issue.
What about the change I made to /etc/sysfs.conf:
/module/bluetooth/parameters/disable_ertm=1
Is it still relevant?
Also I added "Y" to:
/sys/module/bluetooth/parameters/disable_ertm
(which is basically the same thing as before, but from different guide)
