Introduction
While GInput for San Andreas isn't ready yet, I found the best way to get DS3 working with the game.
Configuring MotioninJoy software
First, you need to download and install MotioninJoy software.

Then setup a custom profile just like this:

With this settings you can use start button for pause and unpause game and POV (D-pad) can be used.
Configuring the game
It's time to launch San Andreas and setup controls.
Go to Options>Controller Setup
Set configuration to JOYPAD
Then go to Redefine Controls and st it like this:
Foot Controls
Vehicle Controls
Go back and choose Joypad Settings and set it like this:
Conclusion
That's all, folks!
Hope this guide helped you.

Will this also work with a wireless xbox 360 pc controller?

DistractedOne, no idea. Check carefully every setting both in the game and in MiJ.
