However at the current time his main interest is in Steam support and the driver was working in everything but Steam, which insists on using the controller in hid mode rather than evdev mode by default, and when in evdev mode it is disregarding additional buttons and the gyroscope. So we ended up with a perfectly working driver for the controller, that at the cost of gyroscope support and back buttons has rumble working correctly in Steam. Since the driver works in basically everything that is not Steam, including the browser, I decided to submit it anyway as someone else will surely be interested in using some other way that is not the aforementioned program. To make optimal use of this device the xpad driver should not bind to the controller, and this is the case for more than just this controller as Derek told me, so I added some basic infrastructure to use the best available driver for the device. I also want to thank the original authors that did the work of implementing the controller the first time (in SDL).
