Description david 2005-02-20 01:06:09 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5)
Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0

Description of problem:
The kernel sees the joystick and jstest (from joystick-1.2.15-18
package) sees the joystick but I get no "joy" when trying to use it. 
Nothing happens when using the "jstest /dev/input/js0" command.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.10-1.766_FC3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. $ lsusb 
   Bus 001 Device 006: ID 06a3:053c Saitek PLC
2. $ ls -la /dev/input/js0
   crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13,1 Feb 19 18:04 /dev/input/js0
3. $ jstest /dev/input/js0

   (Displays initial button status, but then....)

   (Nothing happens when buttons pressed or axis moved)
    

Actual Results:  Fascinating.  Nothing happens.


Expected Results:  Expected jstest to display button presses and show
axis movement.

(Works fine on Windows XP).
