Subject: Re: [PATCH 0/4] HID: Improve handling of multimode Logitech handling wheels

Hi all,
I tested this with a DFP, G27 and WiiWheell was looking good, but then
I found a small bug.

It seems that the requested mode is case sensitive. 'G25' works, but
'g25' is seen as a request for a 'DF-GT' and causes and error.

Sorry I didn't see this earlier. I'd be happy to apply and fix later,
but I suspect Jiri will say fix it first.
Simon

PS. Resent via Gmail as my hosting is having issues.
