Add Elite 2 controllers

[hibes]

I attempted to add Elite 2 controllers, but I'm having some issues getting it to work. Any advice on where I might look to try to resolve the issue?

The controller intermittently works via bluetooth (for like 30s at most), but not at all over USB.

[atar-axis]

1. it looks like hid-generic is claiming the device you need to deregister it from it. I am not sure if that worked at your tries
2. xpadneo is a bluetooth driver only
3. I am quite sure that the HID report descriptor differs from the one for the S version

Unfortunately I do not own an Elite 2 controller, so it's hard to help here, but I will try. are you still trying?

[duganchen]

Surely this is redundant with #144 ?

[atar-axis]

yes, right - i am just not sure which one is still developed by their creators 😁

[atar-axis]

closing this in favor of #144

[hibes]

#144 looked abandoned, sorry.
