This patch seems to have broken my Logitech Wingman Action usb gamepad,
it shows as connected but isn't claimed by joydev... another joystick I
have (saitek cyborg usb gold) works fine, and the logitech worked in
previous 2.5/6.x kernels so I'm guessing this patch is to blame, I'm on
2.6.0-test5-mm1, is there any info from the joystick I can provide you
with to fix it? I'm not sure where to look, thanks -Dan

Could you post contents of your /proc/bus/input/devices please?

Could you please try the following patch (it is incremental against the
previous one and should apply to the -mm)

I ran that patch[1] past Vojtech yesterday and he then fixed the problem
which it was addressing by other means within his tree.
So what we should do is to ask Vojtech to share that change with us so Dan
can test it, please.

Hi again,
I'm using 2.6.0-test6 right now with Dmitry's fix and it works fine,
still waiting for Vojtech's code to test out -Dan

It's in test6. Does test6 work fine without Dmitry's fix?

Currently joydev will claim any device reporting ABS_X events. This
includes Synaptics touchpad in absolute mode, PC110 touchpad and both
touchscreens. Nothing bad happens except for strange input/jsX device
but it's still not right.
I think we need stricter rules for joydev matching, like in the patch
below. Unfortunately I do not own any joysticks, but I did go through
all code in input/joystick and I think I covered all possible cases.
