I had my wireless receiver connected as i did the above commands and it worked immediately. It was the last one in the list for me, 4th.

How to create Joystick settings desktop shortcut Here is how to create a desktop shortcut to the settings for the joystick- 1. Right click the desktop and a menu pops up. 2.Move mouse pointer to- create launcher and left click on it. 3.In the name feild put- joystick config 4.In the command feild put- xterm jstest-gtk 5.Then left click- create button * A dialog will appear asking what you want to do with it.

If you want an icon for it that looks approriate just do this-> 1.Left click on the icon 2.Left click- properties 3.A window opens, the picture of the icon is available to Left click on. Click on that. 4.In the "select icon from" drop down menu select "Device Icons" 5.Scroll down to "input-gaming-symbolic" it looks like a game controller. 6.Click on "OK", window goes away then click "close" Done I hope this helps everyone playing games or using Steam with a Xbox360 wireless controller that came from Windoze.
