Alex here's the original mail: hi there, i'm running FreeBSD moshnroll 8.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT #28 r190845: Wed Apr 8 16:27:42 CEST 2009. i'd like to use my joypad under X in order to play games, but i'm unable to find any information on how to do this. the device get's recognized as HID device. here's the line from dmesg: uhid0: on usbus0 i added the following lines to my xorg.conf: Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Logitech Cordless RumblePad 2" Option "Vendor" "Logitech" Driver "joystick" Option "Path" "/dev/uhid0" Option "Device" "/dev/uhid0" Option "DebugLevel" "99" EndSection and added InputDevice "Logitech Cordless RumblePad 2" "SendCoreEvents" to Section "ServerLayout" after starting X however i'm not able to use the joypad. i checked /var/log/Xorg.0.log and found these entries which seem to be related to the problem: (**) Option "Device" "/dev/uhid0" (**) Option "SendCoreEvents" (**) Logitech Cordless RumblePad 2: always reports core events (**) Option
