All is working. Button 1 appears to be button 11. But beside of that it works like a charm.

With the help of qJoyPad ( http://qjoypad.sourceforge.net ) I can play most of the games.

There are other users where the gamepad is not recognized see http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?s=&threadid=283183

Works fine. Button 1 maps as Button 0, but works fine.

It works flawlessly, you have to subtract 1 to each button though (1 is 0, 2 is 1, etc...) when binding. Direction pad is recognized as axes, but they only have +, 0 and - values.

As far as gamepads go, this gamepad has enough buttons to do most everything you want to, but it doesn't have real "analag" axes nor LEDs nor anything fancy... Personally for the price I paid (cheapest in the store I went to) I find it pretty expensive, but if you can get it for 6-7 euros it isn't bad.
