Hi Jiri,
Patched and run, we're almost there... I put an additional printk on usb/input/hid-core.c and hid/hid-input.c to assure I got the right copy, got the messages but not the fix.
What joydev reports is a range between 0 and 255, which is better than -127 to 127 because it's unsigned but still requires further calibration.

The kernel is really simple, problem is that I use ubuntu since version 5 and did distupgrade to 6.06, 6.10 and now 7.04. Lots of configurations were changed, /dev structure, root points, mount, lvm and lots of changes were made since then.
What's annoying me to get a personalized kernel now running is the lvm new configuration that I don't master yet (nor am willing to lately) and that's the only thing that breaks on my ubuntu with a personalized kernel.
The filesystem changes were quite messy, on 6.10 I lost my swap space (kernel couldn't mount it) and I didn't have time to investigate properly. Now, with 7.04 it's back again... I'm too old to investigate every detail... ;)
I'm sure if I get a fresh installation, kernel.org's kernel will work like a charm...
cheers, --renato
