mageia After some experimentation, I found a possible cause of the problem. First, unlike my upgraded install on another computer, STK recognized the receiver to my Microsoft wireless mobile mouse 6000 as an imput device. I also discovered that despite only having my gamepad plugged in, there were two joysticks in /dev/input, js0 and js1. I then used jstest to discover that js1 represented the gamepad, while js0 represented something else. After running "rm /dev/imput/js0", my mouse no longer showed up as an input device in STK and I was able to properly setup my gamepad. Therefore, whatever is causing my microsoft wireless receiver to register as a joystick is likely the cause of this bug. Edit to above: the command I ran was "rm /dev/input/js0". Assigning back to bugsquad as it's not a SuperTuxKart issue. N.B: are you on a laptop? Sometime, mouse is seen as a joystick. Assignee:

bugsquad Yup, its a laptop. On my laptop, it's the accelerometer that is seen as a joystick, so it's even worse :) I don't know what the solution to this could be. I wonder how other distributions manage this kind of issue. CC:

At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX (EOL) if it remains open with a Mageia 'version' of '2'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version prior to Mageia 2's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. -- The Mageia Bugsquad Mageia 2 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on ''22 November''.
