           Summary: Joystick POV (hatswitch) doesn't work
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.58.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: bjdelta at infinito.it


This bug was already reported in the past and assumed solved with version
0.9.43 but it's still present. Joystick hatswitch is seen by wine as 2 axis and
not as a POV, despite any modification in the registry of windows (as suggested
here http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys ). The bug can be verified using
a little windows utility "joytester" (available for download here
http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Joystick-Tester.shtml
) and therefore it's not related to a specific application. My joystick is
Microsoft SideWinder Precision 2 connected via USB and the POV is correctly
detected under linux (UBUNTU 7.10) and tested with "jscalibrator". This bug
prevents from using any kind of game under wine that needs the use of an
hatswitch, especially flight simulation programs.
