One of the axes of my game controller doesn't register in wine

Post by dusthillresident »

I've noticed that Wine, for some reason, does not 'see' the X axis of the right analogue stick on my USB controller.

I tested it with "wine control" and another joystick testing program that reads the data from /dev/input/js0 and I confirm the axis/analogue stick is actually working, it's just that Wine does not seem to respond to it. You can see in this demo video what's going on:

Any ideas on how to fix this or work around it? I would really like to be able to use the right analogue stick properly in windows software so "just dont use the right analogue stick" isn't an option

is there a way to manually specify the number of axes and stuff a joydevice has? Because from the /dev/input/jsX data I can see all the axes of my device changing as I move them, it's just that wine for whatever reason doesn't recognise them.
