Public bug reported:
I wanted play a bit fgfs and had to realize that my joystick don't work
any more. It is a bit strange because I'm pretty sure that it did work
several weeks ago. I'm using (K)Ubuntu 9.04 and I know that I was able
to calibrate this joystick (Saitek X52 Pro) in the "System Settings" ->
"Keyboard & Mouse" -> "Joystick". Now there is only error message "No
joystick device found on this computer"
I checked it and there is indeed no /dev/js device. If I plug this
joystick in my computer dmesg detects it like this:
[13654.784428] usb 3-1: USB disconnect, address 2
[13657.010948] usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4
[13657.197966] usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[13657.212791] input: Saitek Saitek X52 Pro Flight Control System as
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb3/3-1/3-1:1.0/input/input10
[13657.229529] generic-usb 0003:06A3:0762.0007: input,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11
Joystick [Saitek Saitek X52 Pro Flight Control System] on
usb-0000:00:1a.0-1/input0
I saw that HAL assigns this device to /dev/event9 so I suppose that it
could be the problem. I tried to symlink /dev/event9 to /dev/js0 but it
didn't work. KDE Joystick setting said that this device isn't a
joystick.
I've tried to uninstall xserver-xorg-input-joystick and install it again
but it don't help too.
I'm attaching lsusb. lshal and dmesg output.
My kernel is: 2.6.28-15-generic #49-Ubuntu SMP x86_64 GNU/Linux
I'm using KDE 4.3
I saw that there are similar reports but I believe that this is not the
same problem as my X-Server does not crash and I don't want to use my
joystick as a mouse. The other one report I've found concerns the beta
version of Jounty and I'm using the stable version and as I wrote above,
this joystick did work before. The only one big update I did in the
meantime was the update to KDE 4.3
Best regards,
Neo
