Hi,
The Puma Pro flight trainer joystick has a "hat" button and a 3 positions "register selection" that multiply all the available buttons by 3.
In Kubuntu 18.04, this joystick is detected as 15 axis & 30 buttons joystick, but on Kubuntu 19.04, it only detects 10 axis, instead of 16 axis in 18.04.
This seems mainly a joydev module issue in the new kernel 5.0.0
jstest in 18.04:
The "hat button" is mapped on axis (8,9) or (10,11) or (11,12) depending on the "register" selector, which is very helpful for helicopter flying in X-Plane.
jstest in 19.04:
I did not find explanation, nor options to the joydev module.
How can I get back the same behavior as in 4.15 ? How to get back the extra 4 channels that were used by the hat buttons in register 2 & 3 configuration ?
Would someone have some recommendations I could check ?
Thanks,
