jstest /dev/input/js0
There are some other tools in ff-utils for example. As for KDE, I am in the dark here. Does anything change on re/plugging the gamepad in the system settings for joysticks? Are the modules still loaded for the joystick with KDE running?
]]>Yes I have tried other USB sockets. By the way I have USB3 sockets only and joystick is USB2. Maybe that can be a problem? System is up-to-date, reinstalled Arch yesterday, I am even using testing repos, so I have bleeding edge Arch.
Just now I tried rebooting the system and cat /dev/input/js0 without Xorg started and it worked! I get output while pushing buttons. So I think Xorg might be blocking this controller or DE which is KDE. Maybe a need good xorg.conf? Because it stops working after launching Xorg with KDE SC 4

But when I do cat /dev/input/js0 and push buttons on the joystick, it does not react, I don't see any output like with cat /dev/input/mice and moving a mouse...
The main thing is to play Steam games with this joystick. Tried this joystick on Windows 8.1 wifes laptop and it works, even works with force feedback
I have tried reading Arch Linux wiki page Joysticks but nothing helped. I installed xf86-input-joystick, but maybe it need to be added somehow to xorg.conf?
