Hi Melchior,

I thought a little about your suggestion and after I understood what you
are doing I tried it out with some little changes due to my local
requierements but it did/does not work. Did I do anything right?

As I have two joysticks (stick, pedals) and already two working scripts
(made after your first help) I modified your last method a little and
created  two files in /etc/udev/rules.d:

91-local.rules:
KERNEL=="js0" RUN+="/etc/jscal0.sh"
92-local.rules:
KERNEL=="js1" RUN+="/etc/jscal1.sh"

There are 3 changes against your suggestion:
1. I made two rules-files
2. I renamed js* to js0 and js1
3. I called the (already there and working) scripts in /etc/... and not
in /usr/local/sbin/

This does not work. If I call the scripts after booting from a KDE link
(/etc/jscal1.sh; /etc/jscal0.sh) all works fine.

Anything I did wrong with my modifications? Or are the new udev/rules
settings overwritten later by another process?

Regards
Georg

BTW:
there are already files in the udev folder related to joystick

50-udev-default.rules:
...
KERNEL=="js*",            NAME="input/%k", MODE="0644"
...

60-persistent-input.rules:
...
# other devices
...
ATTRS{modalias}!="input:*-*k*14A,*r*", ENV{ID_CLASS}="joystick"
