Help adding knockoff ds4 to python code

[lilmike]

Hi there,

I'm trying to help my friend, who has a chinese knockoff ps4 controller that, for whatever reason, shows up in linux as a ps3 controller. Because of this, the built in touchpad does nothing. I'm trying to add the name of this device to the python code so he can hopefully use it, but having no luck. Any help? The output of lsusb -v is below:

054c:0268 is a ps3 controller. I would open controller and check inf touchpad is really connected to something.
