Weird, I use arch (btw) and a generic Bluetooth driver and have had zero issues with my wireless Xbox controller.. Never needed xbox-specific packages

I am using the Microsoft dongle. Maybe that's why..

Yep, that's why. If your controller is new enough, use Bluetooth.

Pretty much connect & play via Bluetooth.
