Hi, I have found a Bug, which is very annoying in this kernel.
I have built an buttonpad with two controllers, where each has 117 Buttons.

But it seems there is a issue with the kerne, because just 80 buttons on each controller are recognized.

Here is the Project i am using: https://github.com/FreeJoy-Team/FreeJoy

There exists a patch for kernels: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=410549

But this can only work, if i recompile the kernel.
so it would be better, it would be already patched in future (really NEAR future, /next kernel version) versions.
Because i am using this kernel for playing games and its not really efficient, if i cannot play games with my joypad i built. A Kernel designed for games should support such Buttonpads.

May be u think about it, i would preciate it ;)

Is this the patch that you're referring to: patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-input/patch/CACa7zykn0q9XJAUvrqnNATr4DUv3Kc7XujF3vm6sfRB5pE6YNQ@mail.gmail.com/#23482833?

Also, there's also a completely separate driver for Winwing controllers that's referenced: github.com/igorinov/linux-winwing

Listing the controller you're having trouble with will probably help out quite a bit.
