xpad taking over Thrustmaster wheels

[ghost-dad]

Hi,

When reinstalling drivers for my Thrustmaster T128X wheel recently, I encountered an issue where xpad took control/precendence over the device, treating it as an xbox gamepad. And not in a workable way, it just made a huge mess of things.

The issue got a quick'n'dirty resolution by blacklisting xpad, but it'd be nice to get it done properly and just have xpad avoid xbox versions of Thrustmaster wheels. While I can only speak for the T128X I have, T248X is basically guaranteed to be in the same position, they're extremely close to each other software-wise.

If it helps, Kimplul, who handles Thrustmaster drivers for Oversteer speculated here that this is likely due to this recent commit: https://github.com/paroj/xpad/commit/0e6a710bf8d2b19e64c04ad0f6b307c27b6846bc.

Please fix this, as I am having the same problem, where the only way to fix it is to blacklist

I also have a problem with this. I own both an xbox 360 controller and a Thrustmaster TMX but I can't get the TMX to work because of the xpad driver.

I am just putting this here in hopes it can help someone. I added a temporary patch to my local Xpad driver to have it ignore my Thrustmaster T128 xbox version wheel

i added this to the line 119 #define XTYPE_IGNORE 0xff and this line to line 178 { 0x044f, 0xb69c, "Thrustmaster T128X GIP", 0, XTYPE_IGNORE, 0 }, to xpad.c and xpad no longer take over my T128
