Hi,

if Michal and Christophe want to test this, they have to set their
G25/DFP into native mode via G25manage
(http://wiki.vdrift.net/Logitech_G25_support). I rewrote the tool so
that only nativemode and range can be set (the original contained
debugging/calibration which isn't really necessary for a device that
calibrates itself when connected) for both the G25/G27 and the DFP. I
attached the rewritten version and proper udev-rules (DFP-rule not
tested but should work fine). 
I don't know if that stuff should be integrated into the kernel (at
least the initialization), too. Without that, the wheels only report 2
axis and are limited to somewhat 270 degrees instead of 4 axis and 900
degrees.

As for wine, it needs to be patched, too, else it will feel more like a
steamhammer. I'm already writing with two of the devs, and it seems they
got it fixed.

Regards, Peter
