Can't you map Alt-Tab to one of the back buttons? Or does that not work in desktop mode?

EDIT: Or if that doesn't work through steam then is there gamepad software in KDE or the Software Centre that lets the desktop map gamepad buttons?

I've had mixed results doing this. Not really sure why

That works. I'm just lazy and don't want to have to do it for every game.
