The stick gets Initialized properly, as dmesg shows. But then when running an application like for instance "js_demo" the stick does not respond to axial or button input, several of the axes are locked solid in weird (-1) positions. (Calibrating does not fix this, nor does the stick need to be manually calibrated normally)
The problem seems to be in a change of usb/input/hid-core.c that appeared in 2.6.5-rc2. When I use rc1's hid-core.c with some minor editing to force it to build with the rest of the rc2 kernel, the joystick works. I've tested every release kernel since and none of those worked.
Another two X45 users confirmed a non working stick in atleast 2.6.7, and there's also a Saitek P750 joypaduser that might be suffering the same problem.
my stick's serial number: SZ00169829
