Hello everybody, I'm back on the forum...
I just rebuild my crazyflie system after 1 year of inaction.
1) Installing Android client thru Android development platform. last commit 13/05/2017. Ok on HUAWEI phoneGS620,
2) Installing cflib and cfclient with crazyflie-lib-Python, last commit 11/04/2017 and crazyflie-clients-Python last commit 05/05/2017,
3) flashing cf2-2017.04.bin
My system is Debian 8 on a Fujitsu-siemens Lifebook E series. The input device is the XBOX360 wireless.
Following indications of bitcraze wiki, I confirm that driver "xboxdrv" does not have correct behaviour, no connection at all with the Python bircraze client, "cfclient".
So I went back to standard driver "xpad". Everything is all right, except that the input device's led still blinks... This is not really a problem.
I saw many posts complaining abour "xboxdrv" on this forum.
I had the same problem with the bitcraze installation on Ubuntu 17.04 system.

Re: xboxdrv to be blacklisted
Hi,
On Linux the client is going to use the gamepads present in /dev/input/js*. Is xboxdrv showing such a device? It can be verified by running jstest-gtk.
As a side note: Since the default xpad Linux driver is working, why using a user-space driver like xboxdrv?

Re: xboxdrv to be blacklisted
Thanks, I tried to add notes on the wiki to hint that xboxdrv is not needed on modern linux distribution.
