Bug ID: 58743 Summary: Saitek Joystick has a twist stick for rudder. Registry is configured for Rz but 'wine control' shows Rx. Product: Wine Version: 9.0 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: registry Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: bgoodwin91006@charter.net Distribution: ---
I am using the current stable version of Linux Mint 22.1 Wine;
wine-9.0 (Ubuntu 9.0~repack-4build3)
My 'Saitek ST290 Pro' joystick has a twist stick to act as rudder or steering control in addition to the usual X,Y,and Z(throttle) inputs. I need the twist axis to be mapped to the Rz axis so I configured a wine registry entry for this setup. When I run 'wine control', It shows x,y,and z working correctly but the stick twist shows up as Rx. The twist does not work in the game 'FA-18 PSF' as proof that the stick is not mapped to Rz. It has worked in the past (several years ago) on this game.
My registry setting is HKCU-Software-Wine-DirectInput-Saitek-Saitek Pro 290 "=" X,Y,Z,Rz,POV1
I have tried pointing the generic 'joysticks-default' entry to saitek, I have tried various variations of the comma separated x,y,z.etc entries for my joystick (spaces,no spaces), I tried deleting the generic joysticks entry making my Saitek entry the only joystick entry under DirectInput. I tried making the Saitek entry as a sub entry under the generic joysticks entry. It appears that wine is ignoring my registry entry.
