Current implementation of joydev's input_device_id table recognizes only devices with ABS_X, ABS_WHEEL or ABS_THROTTLE axes as joysticks. There are joystick devices that do not have those axes, for example TRC Rudder device. The device in question has ABS_Z, ABS_RX and ABS_RY axes causing it not being detected as joystick. This patch adds ABS_Z to the input_device_id list allowing devices with ABS_Z axis to be detected correctly. Signed-off-by: Ville Ranki <redacted>
Applied, thank you. Although I wonder if we could not move joydev implementation to userspace in the long run. Thanks. -- Dmitry
