The output of the hid debug output was posted previously in the thread. 2) For some reason, th hid driver register lots of absolute axis and joystick buttons that dont seem to work at all, no matter what i press. I Asked if it would be possible to blacklist those. Currently the device registers a js interface with so many axis and buttons that some programs even segfault while reading it. This interface is useless as far as i can see. If you need more detailed information please ask me. Maybe the thread subject should be changed to something more apropriate, do so if it pleases you.
