Ambro, Wine has two drivers for the joystick. One uses evdev devices
(/dev/input/event*) and the other uses joydev devices (/dev/js*). In these four
patches, the real changes are in the evdev driver (joystick_linuxinput.c). They
fix the problem for me when I allow Wine to access the event devices, but not
for the joydev driver (behaviour is unchanged).

Maybe your system isn't allowing read access on the event devices?
