Public bug reported:
I've been trying to get the FF to work on my SideWinder Force Feedback 2
joystick without success so far.
This is what I get when I try to test it:
[code]
~$ sudo fftest /dev/input/event4
Force feedback test program.

Title:
Joystick (SideWinder FF2) Force Feedback doesn't reset properly

As the reset code states: "pool report is sometimes messed up, refetch
it" (hence the 20 times retry count) I thought I would make the retry
count 200 to make sure this was not the issue. Recompiled the kernel,
reboot and retested. But no luck, still buggered after 200 'pool'
requests.
Anyone
Thanks.
