Title:
mayflash super joy box 5 pro can only use 1 gamepad
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
I have one of this:
http://www.mayflash.com/pc/pc039/pc039-1.htm
which is a multi-tap ps/ps2 to usb connector that supports up to four
controllers. But on ubuntu 10.10 fully updated it only supports one,
or rather all four controllers signals are received through a single
device (/dev/input/js0). So you can use any of the four, but not all
at the same time.
Looking around and based on this link:
http://www.mail-archive.com/git-commits-
[email protected]/msg10317.html
I realized that probably reason for this device not to work was
because the HID_QUIRK_MULTI_INPUT quirk is not been applied to it, so
i looked for it's usb product id in the sysfs (vendor=6666,
product=8804) which is also documented in this link:
http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids
and patched the current maverick kernel (2.6.35-28) and now all four
controllers work separately as they should and four joystick devices
are created when connected (/dev/input/js[0-3]) assuming there are
four controllers connected to the connector.
I hope this get fixed so i don't have to patch my kernels anymore :).
Also please advice if i should report this upstream too or if the
ubuntu kernel team will handle that.
Thanks in advance for your hard work.
