I guess not then :)

You still need to apply the patch to correct parsing tabs.

Are you really getting two of each? but you can ignore these as they are
not used yet.

Setting stick_pressure_enabled to 1 should make the buttons work. (The
option name is old, and got it from the fact that pressing on the stick
generats same responce as your buttons). When you say that the touchpad
does not work, do you mean not at all or you cannot not tap?
