I just wanted to confirm the previous post: it doesn't work on my kernel either, which is a 2.6.8 too. Here are the kernel messages I get when I insert the gamepad:

usb 2-3: new low speed USB device using address 5
[A few seconds later...]
drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: ctrl urb status -2 received
drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: usb_submit_urb(ctrl) failed

... then the whole USB system seems lost on my machine, until a reboot. Anyway, this seems to have been solved in future versions of the kernel, as it was said in the previous post.

This gamepad works out of the box on many of the up-to-date distros I've tried, including Ubuntu 7.04, Xubuntu 6.06, Fedora 7, Mandriva 2007.1 One edition, and Ubuntu 6.06.1. So far, it has worked with any program that supports joysticks, or at least, the programs I have to test. This gamepad is very similar in design to the PlayStation 2 controller. The only real feature it lacks is rumble, which can be found in the "Logitech Rumblepad 2 gamepad" for $25.
