Hey,
I've recently found my old Gravis Blackhawk again, and bought a "Super
Joy Box 7" gameport adapter[2] to try and play some Descent or X-Wing
vs. Tie Fighter.
Problem is that the throttle (just about the tip of "l" in the box
photo) throws ABS_HAT0X/ABS_HAT0Y values instead of ABS_THROTTLE.
This is me trying to throttle it to the maximum:
Input driver version is 1.0.1

Is this something that could be fixed in software, or is the hardware a
bust? I've attached the same thing captured by evemu-record.
Cheers
