XBMC & the XBOX360 Remote Troubles

For those of you out there who love XBMC as much as I do, it seems like support for the Xbox360 controller has been problematic since XBMC 12 Frodo alpha 6. Alpha 5 is the last build where the 360 controller works out of the box like it always used to. Since they added PVR support in the builds, my controller has not been properly functional, but as this is a Alpha release I'm prepared to forgive the devs :)
So in the meantime you can revert to Alpha 5 if you want the latest release, otherwise wait until the final Frodo build for (hopefully) complete support.

UPDATE 2012/12/02:
I spoke too soon, 4 days later and now Frodo Beta 2 adds official XBOX360 controller support! Check the blog post here detailing the info: http://xbmc.org/natethomas/2012/12/02/xbmc-12-frodo-beta-2-now-with-android/
