I had to apply this patch to have my Xbox dancepad recognized as a joystick and work with pydance. The dancepad is the DDR Deluxe Dance Mat V.3.1 from Level Six. The model number is X-BOX638. There's some information about the pad at http://www.levelsix.com/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=31. The patch applies on top of the kernel-2.6 files from the Xbox-Linux CVS. It works under 2.4 also. Notice that the value for the field isMat is 0, even though the device is a mat. This is because the pad acts as a controller, sending button presses both as digital buttons and analog axes. In any case, I found that it was necessary in order to make the pad show up as a mouse and a joystick. David Fifield
