Are you using gutsy? This is the best I could find:

Fankies Buddy, I found a link in that google search that has a step by step guide

rassy, do you have one of those usb adaptor things? or a parallel port mod thing like i do? (for ps/ps2 )

p.s: my step brother made that thing years ago, but it still works, so if i ever want to use a ps2 controller for pc, yay!

The xbox 360 wired controller has a usb connector by default all ya have to do is download the official drivers from Microsoft, though Vista comes with the drivers built in.

I do have an Xbox Controller S that my brother modified for me, as the connector is internally the same as a USB, he swapped it wire for wire with a real USB connector.

It turns out that Gutsy has xbox controller drivers built in too, which is great for my Controller S, but i have to manually install drivers for my 360 Controller.

Now i can play 2 players in games, in both Windows and Ubuntu
