Guitar Hero controller in Gutsy (Playstation and Xbox versions?)

[the_darkside_986]

Will there ever be a package of this? I can't even get this to work now.

I've actually moved over to Mac OS X now and don't plan on putting together a package myself (I was never able to do that in the first place). But anyone else who's willing is welcome to.

Hey all. I found this thread, when researching ways to get my guitar hero 3 controller working in Linux.

Maybe it's time to revive it

I've tried gizmod, it recognizes the controller as being plugged in, but it won't pick up events from it (when viewing it in debug mode)

I then tried the instructions on this site and when I type make I get this

erik@erik-desktop:~/.xpad360$ make
make modules -C /lib/modules/2.6.27-11-generic/build SUBDIRS=/home/erik/.xpad360

Any ideas what this could mean?

I'm running Kubuntu 8.10

this is not the way to do it. module_exit(usb_xpad_exit); mean that when the module will be remove with the rmmod command, the usb_xpad_exit function will be called.
