--- Comment #5 from Evert Vorster <evors...@protonmail.com> ---
One thing I find interesting is that when the Logitech USB joystick is plugged
in, it is visible with evtest, as per my original bug submission. This means
that it is actually using the newer evdev API rather than the Joystick API, and
should be visible?

```
[evert@Evert ~]$ sdl2-jstest --list
Found 1 joystick(s)

Joystick Name:     'Logitech Extreme 3D'
Joystick GUID:     0300ed156d04000015c2000010010000
Joystick Number:    0
Number of Axes:     4
Number of Buttons: 12
Number of Hats:     1
Number of Balls:    0
GameControllerConfig:
  missing (see 'gamecontrollerdb.txt' or SDL_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG)
```

Running sdl2-jstest --test 0, I can see that it works properly.

I can see that it also is visible under the old API. 
```
[evert@Evert ~]$ cd /dev/input/by-id/
[evert@Evert by-id]$ ls
usb-0c76_USB_PnP_Audio_Device-event-if03        
usb-Logitech_Logitech_Extreme_3D-joystick  
usb-Logitech_USB_Optical_Mouse-mouse
usb-Logitech_Logitech_Extreme_3D-event-joystick 
usb-Logitech_USB_Optical_Mouse-event-mouse
```

Something is not adding up, because from my point of view, this joystick is
available in both the joystick and evdev/SDL2 API, and so should be visible in
the KDE input devices. Something else must be filtering out the joystick
devices in that module.
