I'm about to try some wireless xbox controllers under Gentoo via this

And this kernel module:
% modinfo xpad
author:         Marko Friedemann <mfr at bmx-chemnitz.de>
description:    X-Box pad driver
license:        GPL
vermagic:       2.6.13-gentoo SMP preempt 586 gcc-3.3
depends:        usbcore
alias:          usb:v*p*d*dc*dsc*dp*ic58isc42ip00*

I'll let the list know how it turns out later tonight.
