Technical Details

The BRX dongle uses the standard OG Xbox interface over USB supported by MiSTer's xpad linux driver. However, it uses the Espressif USB vendor ID, rather than the typical Microsoft vendor ID. The on script simply adds Espressif's vendor ID via the xpad /sys/ interface and pokes xpad to update. A init.d entry is also added to automatically enable support at startup.

The brx_off script removes the Espressif vendor ID from xpad, pokes it, and removes the init.d script.
