Code:

And look for your joystick's name. You need :

Code:
input.device = '/dev/input/event0'  (string)


Where "0" will be some number.

Yes and no. There are 2 joystick input interfaces - "Linux input" and "event device" aka evdev. Evdev is a newer interface. But most distros configured so you don't have direct access to those devices.

You should find which device is it, and chmod it so Wine can use it.
