Not that I know of - I do chat online with one of the wine-devs involved
for/with introducing the OSX joystick support, but I haven't had the
opportunity to natter about this issue yet (he's a very busy fellow). I believe
there's enough information here for the devs to isolate test case(s) to check
against...I certainly believe there's enough interest from the Mac quarter to
warrant someone steering this to a live-happily-ever-after ending, going by the
number of posts about the place I see wrt (particularly IL-2) not having
joystick HID input in OSX in many win32 games. I think I understand what's
happening (or rather not happening as the case may be), but I don't know OSX at
all well, I've only had the iMac for < 1yr ; yes, we really need a dev or other
wine hacker familiar with OSX to poke at this with burning incense sticks to
help get that funny smell of rotten Apples out of the dinput hallway carpet =)
Hopefully the planets will realign soon again, now that MacWorld has been and
gone, and I can find out something more about the whys of this...it all takes
time...;)
