[LIVE] Any gamepad/game-controller that works out-of-the-box with XBMC Live?

Question 
Are there any gamepads (USB or wireless) that work with XBMC Live (Dharma 4 beta) out of the box? For now, I would like to control XBMC with one but later want to use one for gaming.

I am asking because I do not have enough knowledge about setting up gamepads under Linux.

Thanks.

not exactly out of the box, but if you can copy and paste you can have it working in 5 minutes.

and instead of steps one and two just do this.
Code:
wget http://drop.io/download/4cd876a7/50643606b2fb595f886bc579aa3088323319acd5/Asset/8449475/v3/original_content -O xboxdrv_for_XBMC_live.v1.tar.gz

I know that Dharma has built-in support for Logitech Rumblepad 2 gamepad. Are there any other gamepads that have built-in configuration files in Dharma?

Thanks.

Works perfect, but the url has changed.

yes, except the trigger buttons L2 and R2 - they are working, however most emulators can't handle them right.

i'm using the xbox 360 wired controller (pc version) and some cheap logitech ps1-style gamepad without any modifications.
