wine users - Jan 2009 - wine not recognizing stick POV hat switches on ubuntu

Hello,

I'm having a problem with my stick (Saitek ST290 Pro) under wine on ubuntu -
Windows game doesn't respond at all to POV buttons. On Mandriva and debian
Lenny everything works - just ubuntu gives me trouble. jstest also responds
to the POV buttons. I tried playing with the DirectInput registry entry, but
didn't get anywhere. Any suggestions?

TIA

Use evdev interface instead of old joydev.
Make sure you have at least read access to /dev/input/event* device that
correspond to your joystick.

Read my post again. I told you what you have to do.

Synaptic says I have xserver-xorg-input-evdev installed and
xserver-xorg-input-joystick not installde. Is that what You meant?

Thank You
