Blacklist it from the X evdev driver:
| /etc/X11/xorg.conf: | Section "InputClass"
Identifier "XBox Gamepad"
MatchProduct "Xbox Gamepad (userspace driver)"
Option "Ignore" "on"
EndSection |

| Ok, now it doesn't control the cursor anymore but it still doesn't work in game (rocket league, speedrunners). It is strange that it doesn't work because js0 is producing output... |

The problem is in the permissions of this 'file':
| Code: | | crw-rw---- 1 root input 13, 76 May 16 16:51 /dev/input/event12 |
I don't understand why this udev rule doesn't works:
| Code: | KERNEL=="event[0-9]*", ENV{ID_BUS}=="?*", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}=="?*", GROUP="games", MODE="0660"
KERNEL=="js[0-9]*", ENV{ID_BUS}=="?*", ENV{ID_INPUT_JOYSTICK}=="?*", GROUP="games", MODE="0664" |
https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/xbox-360-controller-not-recognized-by-steam-4175491243/#post5097871
But now that I know that it is event12 (from 'cat /proc/bus/input/devices') a simple chmod +r /dev/input/event12 should fix it without security issues. |
