If one uses several joystick devices, which the Linux kernel reports
under the same name, then fgfs can't assign individual xml drivers.
I published a kernel patch to solve that on my bu0836 page[1]. Now
I've also written a preload library which does pretty much the same,
but doesn't require you to patch the kernel. Just use LD_PRELOAD before
running fgfs:

  $ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/js_serial_preload.so fgfs --aircraft=bo105

To get the source:

  $ git clone git://gitorious.org/bu0836/bu0836.git
  $ cd bu0836/js_serial_preload/
  $ make
  $ sudo make install

Please report problems. (I didn't test it much. Actually, I didn't
even review it much.  ;-)
