I have two identical RedOctane USB Dance Pads. Both used to work perfectly using the usbhid module\driver. Now one pad is using the xpad driver as opposed to the usbhid module. How do I change this? By using the xpad driver the dance pad no longer functions correctly. The second pad still works perfect. I didn't change anything on my system. I tried recompiling my kernel and removed the xpad module, but one of the dance pads still won't work. How do I force a device to  use the usbhid driver? I'm running SuSE 10.0 64 bit. Is there a file which tells the USB device what to modprobe? I've tested on both 32 and 64 bit SuSE 10.0. Thanks in advance.

I have a screenshot attached to this message board posting of my problem here (note: shots were taken with one pad at a time which is why both are /dev/js0): http://forums.suselinuxsupport.de/index.php?showtopic=28794

It seems a lot like this problem of two usb drivers fighting for control: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=105964

The solution there was to remove  both modules, and then load back the one you want to use. I tried this:
rmmod xpad usbhid
modprobe usbhid 

Which didn't help. The only difference is that the pad changed it's status active status to "no". Any advice? I'm going crazy. Thanks in advance.
