Gravis GamePad Pro USB

[dododge at smart.net]

I have a Gravis GamePad Pro USB. It's modeled after the standard
Playstation 1 controller. See:

http://www.gravis.com/products/pro_eli_d1019.html

Pyddr sees it, but the 2-axis/10-button configuration isn't
recognized so it doesn't get enabled for play. Here's a patch to
pyddr 0.6.2 which appears to make this controller work.

Note: I've only tried it on Linux, and since I haven't modified this
controller yet to wire in my DDR pad, I can't say for sure how
responsive it is.

BTW: is there a web-accessible mailing list archive?
