From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm confused. Have you tried what is suggested in the arch wiki? Controllers are easier to get working on Linux than in Windows in my experience... And I'm on Manjaro. The Xbox 360 controller was considered the default for such a long time that in many cases, other controllers' buttons had to be remapped externally to match the xbox 360's in order to play games. It should be completely plug and play if your adapter and controller both work.
