           Summary: Controller device gets permanently assigned as xinput
                    ONLY or dinput ONLY on prefix creation, depending how

winecfg-dinput.log

Dear wine developers,
Depending on if the prefix was first created by running ``wine control`` or
``winecfg``, my controller device gets permanently (for that prefix) assigned
as either ``dinput`` ONLY device (being not visible for application that
accepts only ``xinput`` devices), or as ``xinput`` device, allowing to be used
by said application. Once the prefix is created, there is no way to change how
the device will be seen on wine's side.

Specifically:
If prefix is first created by running ``wine control``, the device will be
``xinput`` (see log ``wine-control-xinput.log`` from creating the prefix and
''xinput.png`` screenshot for ``wine control`` joyapplet content).

If prefix is first created by running ``winecfg``, the device will be
``dinput`` (see logs ``winecfg-dinput.log`` from creating the prefix and
``wine-control-dinput.log`` from running ``wine control`` there, also
''dinput.png`` screenshot for ``wine control`` joyapplet content).

All logs are made with:
WINEDEBUG="+plugplay,+hid,+xinput"

It is worth adding, that any prefix affected by the bug (as in - controller
device not usable by application expecting ``xinput``) will have the controller
WORKING as ``xinput`` if the prefix will be run with Wine 6.16 or earlier. The
bug is present in Wine 6.17 already (despite no separate ``dinput`` and
``xinput`` fields in ``wine controll`` joyapplets, those appeared in Wine
6.18).

Cheers,
/CatLady
