Summary0000669: cannot bind a joystick's hat controller for input
DescriptionThis happens for my Microsoft Sidewinder Precision Pro (USB) and Logitech Wingman Digital (Aux-Port) under Gentoo Linux with built in kernel drivers. The problem even might be unresolveable by FS2 source code writers because it might be a driver bug. I investigated a bit and found out that the corresponding SDL events like HAT_LEFT (and so on) are never generated and thus never caught in the message loop. But maybe SDL is the one producing the bugs here.

You'll probably have to use the SDL_LINUX_JOYSTICK environment variable to set up the joystick features properly. With that var you can specify the number of axes and hats that SDL sees. Look here for more info: http://www.libsdl.org/cgi/docwiki.cgi/SDL_5fenvvars
