might be missing some udev rules then, might take some time until i figure out how to set that.
Hello,
Adding a udev rule is done like this: - Create a file in the directory where udev picks up custom rules (must be done as root). Example: $ sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/50-edtracker.rules - Write the rule line in the file (the id numbers match your dmesg log): KERNEL=="event*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="16d0", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0aea", MODE:="666" - Save and reboot;
I'm not familiar with fedora toolbox but there is some explanation on how to share the udev rules between toolbox and host there:

The permission issue is not related to Wine but any program who use the input event interface, as you can read there:
[2] https://developer.x-plane.com/2012/09/linux-joystick-permissions/
don't quite understand why /dev/input/event5 and /dev/input/event7 works and is accessible out of the box but /dev/input/event6 doesn't.
It depends on the driver of the device. I think they consider it a pointing device, like a touchpad, rather than a controller. Or it's a bug in the driver, I don't know.
does that mean "legacy" js support won't come back and this change was intentional then?
The js interface has been declared obsolete and will eventually be removed from the Linux kernel itself.

Regarding the /dev/js backend, it's been removed but we can consider adding it back to winebus.sys if it's helping some cases.
It would give me more time to work on a solution to the off-center calibration problem.
Regards.
