Subject: Input: xpad - delete a Razer DeathAdder mouse VID/PID entry
From: Ismael Ferreras Morezuelas <swyterzone@xxxxxxxxx>
commit feee70f4568650cf44c573488798ffc0a2faeea3 upstream.
While doing my research to improve the xpad device names I noticed
that the 1532:0037 VID/PID seems to be used by the DeathAdder 2013,
so that Razer Sabertooth instance looked wrong and very suspect to
me. I didn't see any mention in the official drivers, either.
After doing more research, it turns out that the xpad list
is used by many other projects (like Steam) as-is [1], this
issue was reported [2] and Valve/Sam Lantinga fixed it [3]:
[1]: https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/blob/dcc5eef0e2395854b254ea2873a4899edab347c6/src/joystick/controller_type.h#L251
[2]: https://steamcommunity.com/app/353380/discussions/0/1743392486228754770/
[3]: https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/29809f6f0271
(With multiple Internet users reporting similar issues, not linked here)
After not being able to find the correct VID/PID combination anywhere
on the Internet and not receiving any reply from Razer support I did
some additional detective work, it seems like it presents itself as
"Razer Sabertooth Gaming Controller (XBOX360)", code 1689:FE00.
Leaving us with this:
* Razer Sabertooth (1689:fe00)
* Razer Sabertooth Elite (24c6:5d04)
* Razer DeathAdder 2013 (1532:0037) [note: not a gamepad]
So, to sum things up; remove this conflicting/duplicate entry:
{ 0x1532, 0x0037, "Razer Sabertooth", 0, XTYPE_XBOX360 },
As the real/correct one is already present there, even if
the Internet as a whole insists on presenting it as the
Razer Sabertooth Elite, which (by all accounts) is not:
{ 0x1689, 0xfe00, "Razer Sabertooth", 0, XTYPE_XBOX360 },
