Joystick troubles with Hercules Game Theater XP

[gkmac]

I've got an old 15-pin joypad which I still like(d) to use. I used to connect it to the motherboard, but recently that motherboard killed itself so I had to get a new one. And this new motherboard does not have a 15-pin joystick connector.

There's a joystick connector on the front of my Hercules Game Theater XP soundcard, but in Linux it does not work properly. The fire buttons work, but the directional bit doesn't work.

I thought it was a calibration issue at first, but doing cat /dev/js0 reveals that absolutely no events get in when the directional bit is pressed. The fire buttons generate events, but the directional bit seems to generate absolutely nothing no matter what I do.

How can I make it work?

Yeah, I've got the same problem. Buttons work but stick movement doesn't register. Unfortuately, I don't know Linux well enough to figure it out
