Public bug reported:
The fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/300143
broke support for the Saitek X52 Joystick. You can still see it in the
the lsusb output:
$ lsusb
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 06a3:075c Saitek PLC X52 Flight Controller
[...]
and plugging it in generates the following entry in /var/log/syslog:
Dec 3 20:13:07 scruffy kernel: [ 4682.545751] generic-usb 0003:06A3:075C.0003:
input,hidraw1: USB HID v1.11 Joystick [Saitek Saitek X52 Flight Control System]
on usb-0000:00:02.0-9/input0
Apparently this code from input/joydev.c is responsible:
}, /* Avoid itouchpads and touchscreens */
{
.flags = INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_EVBIT |
INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_KEYBIT,
.evbit = { BIT_MASK(EV_KEY) },
.keybit = { [BIT_WORD(BTN_DIGI)] = BIT_MASK(BTN_DIGI) },
}, /* Avoid tablets, digitisers and similar devices */
