[PATCH 1/1] Force feedback for Fanatec Clubsport wheel

Hi!

I am trying to add support for force feedback for the "Fanatec Clubsport
Wheel Base V2". (More information at
http://www.fanatec.com/eu-de/wheel-bases/clubsport-wheel-base-v2-eu-eu.html
)
It is a configurable racing wheel for enthusiasts.

Using a simple hack (by handling it somewhat like a Logitech G27, see
patch below) I managed to get constant force effects working.
However, the wheel only ever moves towards the right (no matter which
effect direction or value is specified). Also (less important), the
spring centering isn't turned off automatically like it is for Logitech
wheels.

From looking at the kernel source, I get the impression that there's no

real standard for HID force feedback... so is there anything I can try
except USB debugging (which I can't) and contacting the manufacturer
(who seem to have no interest in supporting Linux)?

Best regards,
  Florian
