There is a bug that causes the joystick to be detected as 1 axis 13 buttons
0 hat instead of 4 axis, 12 buttons, 1 hat
Found a commit that fixes it in upstream trunk rev 5424
Fixed crash in joystick handling code. Newer 2.6 kernels add an additional
'resolution' field to input_absinfo. Note that we don't use that structure
since we want to have enough space for the values even when building with
an older kernel.
