What happenend instead: No force-feedback at all. ffcfstress raises error "ERROR: device (or driver) has no constant force feedback support [ffcfstress.c:194]" although the joystick has constant force feedback support. -- Hi, The joystick is recognized by the OS and can read axis and button information. However, no force-feedback can be apply e.g. via `ffmvforce` (will not complain but does nothing) or `ffcfstress` (complains, that hardware or driver do not support force-feedback). $ ffcfstress -d /dev/input/event8 ERROR: device (or driver) has no constant force feedback support [ffcfstress.c:194] I tried to patch the iforce kernel module myself based on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/792937 and https://launchpadlibrarian.net/73006485/Linux-Force-Feedback-for-Saitek-Cyborg-Evo-Force%20%281%29.patch . My kernel module is working and loaded, however, the patch didn't enable force-feedback (probably I was missing something in the patch, since the linked patch is outdated). Since, I have absolutely no clue what else I could do, to get force-feedback working, I post this here since in an ideal world this should work plug&play. What can I do to enable force-feedback for my joystick using ubuntu?
