FreeBSD subzero 9.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE #0 r243826: Tue Dec  4 06:55:39 UTC 2012     root@obrian.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

>Description:
I have a DragonRise SNES USB gamepad controller(VendorID= 0x0079; ProductID= 0x0011) and it doesn't work out of the box for FreeBSD. I created a device driver for it and it works fine now.
>How-To-Repeat:
Boot up a system running FreeBSD 9.1. Plug in the SNES USB gamepad into an available USB port on the system. The system will not be able to recognize the controller and the user will not be able to use it with user applications.
>Fix:
Create a device driver to recognize the device and allow user applications to access it. The code for the driver is here:
