Hi all,
We should note that part 1 performs a very important function of identify
the wheels as per Logitech's schema.

At present our (old detection) uses USB Revision to identify 'fancy'
wheels which can be placed into native mode. This means when Logitech
updates the hardware we are playing catch-up (this has happened 3 times
with the DF-GT wheel so far).

This newer code should automatically cope with new wheels in the future.


Thanks to Michal for undertaking this work. I have been testing the code
over the past weeks and believe it to be working, I will confirm mid-next
week when I can gain access to my wheels.
