Smeuuh, I can confirm the exact same thing happened to me. There's the "bogus accelerometer" event device (called USB Dance Mat Motion Sensors on my pad), and then there's another which isn't recognized by Stepmania (you can see "not a joystick; ignoring" on its output if you run it from terminal). On my Mayflash TX4500-v2 the product string is USB Dance Mat. The IDs are indeed 054c:0268 on my dance pad as well. Oddly, it didn't seem to need the quirk as the two devices were there and received events even before patching the kernel.
What I did end up doing was mapping the joystick device (the one that registers input when looking with evtest or similar tool) as an Xbox controller via Xboxdrv. You have to do that manually, though, since just enabling the service doesn't detect the mapping correctly. I used this guide here: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Universal- Controller-Calibration-&-Mapping-Using-xboxdrv . After that the fake Xbox controller got detected by Stepmania and worked flawlessly after mapping it in Options (I didn't need axisfix, your situation may vary). Hope this workaround helps you a bit. I have a hunch the quirk does not work at this point, and the dance pads still get detected as a borked PS3 controller (with accelerometer). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1584475 Title: No input events for FutureMax Dance Mat Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: On my ubuntu booth of my FutureMax Dance Mats does not generate any input events. So they can not be used. The hardware is working, i verified this with a windows PC. The missing events were checked with cat /dev/input/eventX, evtest, xev. On ubuntu the device is set up (udevadm has it, dmesg has it, evtest sees it), module joydev is loaded but no input is recognized/ visible and /dev/input/eventX Expected behavior: Plug and Play with the usb Dance Mat Acutal behavior: No play possible as no input events appear and so the game can not use it.
