Public bug reported: 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- h...@vger.kernel.org/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. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/751901 Title: mayflash super joy box 5 pro can only use 1 gamepad -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
