I haven't tried my yoke or rudder pedals since I switched to Linux 2.6. Today I dusted them off, and sure enough, they don't work. I would be grateful for any help from someone who initially couldn't get them to work and then figured out how to.

Plugging in the yoke gives this message:

usb 1-2.1: new low speed USB device using address 13
drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: ctrl urb status -32 received
input: USB HID v1.00 Joystick [CH PRODUCTS CH FLIGHT SIM YOKE USB ] on usb-0000:00:1f.2-2.1


Unlike stock (unpatched) 2.4.* kernels, this kernel does recognize the yoke -- that's a big improvement -- but it does not register any movement from the axes or buttons, either through jstest, plib's js_demo, or FlightGear itself.

With a Logitech joystick, I get a different error status -- -104 instead of -32 -- but jstest and js_demo do show the axes moving (and it works fine with FlightGear):

usb 1-2.1: new low speed USB device using address 14
drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: ctrl urb status -104 received
drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: timeout initializing reports
input: USB HID v1.10 Joystick [Logitech Inc. WingMan RumblePad] on usb-0000:00:1f.2-2.1


I notice from the archives that some people do have trouble with the CH yoke/rudder pedals under Linux 2.6.* and some people don't. As Alex or Tony pointed out a while ago, CH shipped with several different versions of firmware in the same product; obviously, I have the version that still doesn't work with an unpatched Linux kernel.

Any suggestions (besides going back to 2.4.*)?


All the best,



David
