Bug#951621: ITP: xow - Linux driver for the Xbox One wireless dongle



Package: wnpp
Owner: "Samuel Henrique" <samueloph@debian.org>
Severity: wishlist
User: samueloph@debian.org

* Package name    : xow
* URL             : https://github.com/medusalix/xow
* License         : GPL-2+ and Custom_LIcense
  Programming Lang: C
  Description     :
xow is a Linux user mode driver for the Xbox One wireless dongle. It communicates with the dongle via libusb and provides joystick input through the uinput kernel module. The input mapping is based on existing kernel drivers like xpad.

This package will go into the non-free section as there's a blob for the Mediatek chipset: firmware.bin
