I'm trying to use a Logitech CyberMan 2 as an input controller for GIMP and as a joystick in FPS games.
In case you're not familiar with this Logitech joystick, it connects to the game port and uses the adi module

The Cyberman 2 is recognised correctly, however none of the buttons work and the controller moves the cursor.
SuperTux does recognise that there is a joystick attached, however it does not respond to the CyberMan 2. Any attempts to reconfigure the key assignments results in the mouse cursor jumping to the centre of the screen and button presses are not registered.

The version of xserver-xorg-input-evdev is 1:2.0.99+git20080912-0ubuntu6 and I do not have xserver-xorg-input-joystick installed.
I have also tried creating an fdi file (attached) as per comment 78, which I placed in /etc/hal/fdi/policy but to no avail.

I'm surprised at the "this bug is closed for good. Install all updates." remark, as clearly this bug is not fixed.
