--- Comment #1 from Olivier F. R. Dierick <o.dierick at piezo-forte.be> ---
Hello,

Legacy js support has been removed starting from Wine 6.20, so you'll only see
those controller that showed with (event) on older version. There is no more
need of the (js) or (event) indicator to distinguish between js and event
devices now that js has been removed.

Looking at the screenshots, the missing device is "EDTracker EDTracker Pro" so
I did a quick web search about that device.

In the discussion on that website [1], it seems that you have to manually add
udev rules to set the right permissions for the evdev interface to be seen in
userspace programs.

Use 'evtest' to check if the controller is detected as a /dev/input/eventX
device: If it doesn't show up in the list when you run the command as a user,
run 'evtest' as root. If the device show in the list when you run as root, then
it's a permission problem and a udev rule should fix it (Check the linked
discussion for examples of udev rules). If it doesn't show up at all then there
is a deeper issue with the device OS/driver integration.

Please notify us of the result of 'evtest'. That command is part of the
'joystick' package under Debian.
