When I plug in my xbox one controller via USB it crashes my system. The entire system locks up shortly after plugging the controller in. I have to push the power button in order to get a working system.
I should add I am not trying to play a game or anything. I just want to be able to plug in the device and use libusb on it.
I don't really know what else to say. I tried every port and I get the same result. Please let me know if you need more information.
14.04.3 - 3.19.0-37-generic
UPDATE : installed new kernel still same error 4.2.0-19-generic from repos
syslog, after several tries and my computer locking up I got this.

Regarding that Lkml Posting it should work with the original 14.04 3.13 kernel? https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/11/11/395
Edit: actually that is kind of bad for your Controller. The patch that should have made the kernel working with your Controller made xpad crash the whole kernel: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1514505/comments/37
i would say mark yourself as affected on that ubuntu bug and try to follow it if there is any updates.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-input/msg42342.html (from the same guy, he seems quite active to poke the people to get that working) says there was a patch for latest kernels but it is in the half state now: doesnt crash anymore but still doesnt work.
