Subject: [libsdl1.2debian] Left/Right Joystick Axis doesn't work with some controllers

Date: Thu, 17 May 2012 22:42:09 +0200

Package: libsdl1.2debian
Version: 1.2.15-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

I tried to use mupen64plus-input-sdl and noticed that my right/left axis 
doesn't work anymore. It worked perfectly some months ago. The first reaction 
was to blame the mupen64plus-input-sdl, but one of the developers told me that 
my SDL was broken and told me how to test it.

# apt-get source libsdl1.2
...
# cd libsdl1.2-1.2.15/test/
# ./configure
...
# make
# ./testjoystick
There are 1 joysticks attached
Joystick 0: Sony PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller
       axes: 4
      balls: 0
       hats: 0
    buttons: 19
# ./testjoystick "Sony PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller"


I don't see any reactions when moving the stick left or right. I downgraded to 
the version 1.2.14-6.1 of libsdl1.2debian from squeeze. The binary started to 
work without any problems. I would guess that this makes the bug a regression. 
An update to 1.2.15-3 instantly reintroduced the problem.

The problem is known since a while and not fixed in svn (but user fixed it):

   Thanks for the report. I could reproduce it with my SixAxis and
fixed the bug properly. It'll be in the next Debian upload.

Setting new forwarded address because I think that the original one
was not the same problem, so I resubmitted to clarify and see if we
have to keep the patch or not, now that SDL2 is released.
