Joystick driver

Programming Help

Hi All,

I’m attempting to install the joystick driver on a 22.04 version of linux that has the hwe installed. However, running the command provided in the instructions (sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-joystick-hwe-22.04) returns the following error:

E: Unable to locate package xserver-xorg-input-joystick-hwe-22.04
E: Couldn’t find any package by glob ‘xserver-xorg-input-joystick-hwe-22.04’

After searching for the package, I can only find xserver-xorg-input-joystick-hwe-18.04. Just wondering if this is the correct package? This is my first dive into linux, so apologies if if Ive missed something obvious. Thanks in advance.

cheers,

George

Try xserver-xorg-input-joystick, seems to be same driver for hwe vs. non-hwe since a while.

Edit: Thanks for the feedback, will fix this documentation bug for an upcoming release.
