Saitek x52 pro don't work under Ubuntu 9.10
Hello to everyone, I have an X52 pro flight control system.
I can't use it under ubuntu. I don't know why.
I have followed the FG getstartguide.pdf to check the device.
The commands that I've used to check:
1) andrea@andrea-IBM:~$ lsusb
Bus 004 Device 004: ID 06a3:0762 Saitek PLC
2) andrea@andrea-IBM:~$ dmesg | grep Joystick

Different configurations for the same stick depending on OS (Linux vs. Windows)
I'm using js_demo on Linux (here: Ubuntu Lucid x64 with joystick "SpeedLink Black Widow")
On Linux it's detected as "Mega World USB Game Controller", on Windows js_demo detects a "SL-6640 Black Widow Flightstick".
I define cooliehat left/right and up/down for view direction and view elevation. On Linux the numbering of the cooliehat axis differs from what is detected on Windows. This I can respect by using the number-tag in my XML. Additional view elevation is opposite in both OSs. Linux move up = axis 5 -> -1, move down = axis 5 -> +1; Windows move up = axis 7 -> +1, move down = axis 7 -> -1. How can I respect these differences in my config.xml?
