You're facing a common issue when setting up Xbox Drv on Xubuntu 20.10. The problem seems to stem from the package not being properly recognized by the system. Even though `apt list xboxdrv` shows it's installed, the service file might not exist or be in the correct location. Try checking the package status with `dpkg -l xboxdrv` and ensure it's in the right directory. If needed, reinstalling the package or manually creating the necessary files could help.

It seems the installer isn't adding the required service file. Look in "/etc/systemd/system/" for an "xboxdrv.service" or its symlink. It might not be a systemd service—try starting it manually with "/etc/init.d/xboxdrv start" or create the file yourself.

Remove xpad using sudo rmmod xpad, then launch xboxdrv via sudo xboxdrv

It’s mentioned in every installation guide I’ve seen, so I’ll go with that. I attempted it, but the command failed because the module xpad isn’t loaded, even though running sudo xboxdrv works.
