System information
Additional context
I got the Xbox One Controller with the USB dongle supplied with.
If you're using the official Microsoft dongle you are looking for a different driver. Have a look at this project: https://github.com/medusalix/xow
You should start bluetooth.service. sudo systemctl start bluetooth.service
after typing sudo bluetoothctl:
enter your account password, then type scan on at the [bluetooth]# prompt
This looks like an issue of the distribution. If bluetoothctl doesn't show a prompt, that's completely outside of the scope of this project. Try asking the Pop Os folks first, this seems unrelated to xpadneo.
Also, the original dongle cannot be supported currently, you'd need to use Bluetooth.
Moving to wifi project support... Xpadneo currently only supports third-party Bluetooth dongles.
