"I picked up a PC Power Pad Pro at a garage sale, for something
like US$0.50. A steal, for 2% of its original retail, right? Except
I couldn't get it to work with my sound card.
"I did all kinds of Google searches, trying to figure out why my
controller wasn't... controlling. I had the "analog" kernel module
loaded, I passed the "map=0x30f3" parameter to it, but I got
nothing back. The system log showed nothing about a joystick
connected anywhere.
"I tore into the Linux kernel documentation. It was no help. I
finally had to help myself, with some imaginative thinking. Was I
looking in the wrong driver for the solution?"
