Timo, it's a bit late. After reading on both the ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list and on launchpad that you'd like users to file this information, I've spend a whole day writing the documentation, then emailing mailing lists/forums. I also asked you personally one week ago, on private email, on the ubuntu-devel-discuss and in this thread - you can't have possibly missed it, since you answered this bug after my message.
I appreciate the work you did for wacom support in Feisty (and the rest), but, to remain polite, this is a waste. At least with users providing lshal output we can support them by providing them an fdi file (if your method works), since Ubuntu doesn't want to do it. Jeremy LaCroix, I can share your feelings. However, since I've been part of the Ubuntu community (4.10) each release have seen the developer (as silently as they could) drop support for some relatively big category of hardware / users. In that case people have reacted like you (I did at first, and for messes more serious than joysticks), but in the end it doesn't help, because the decision has already been taken (and yes, we users also offered our help and time to see those bug fixed, usually far earlier in the development cycle). Basically, either you're at UDS and can program the features yourself, or you just hope it will be fixed in less than 3 or 4 releases. -- Joystick detected as mouse, crashes X https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/274203 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
