I just applied the patch in post #2 on Ubuntu 11.10 (kernel 3.0.0-14-generic) after some modifications to get it apply cleanly.
After some tweaking of modules (I think iforce needs to be loaded before usbhid or the force effects do not work?) I can confirm that the force feedback effects work on Saitek Cyborg Evo Force. ffset works, fftest works (though spring & damping don't do much, and constant force is quite weak), ffmvforce works (though it seems to only apply the first click, later clicks do not change force direction). ffcfstress does not work, every line prints out "upload effect: Resource temporarily unavailable". Also after running this, no effect works afterwards. Dmesg shows lines like this: "[ 5481.742833] input input30: not enough space in xmit buffer to send new packet" bzflag works, both rumble and directional effect. I'd like to see this patch in future kernel versions :) At least the identification parts, because I guess the axis values are not that critical?
