How do I configure a joystick in Ubuntu 16.04?












0















I have a joystick(img) with device id




0079-0006-DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick




I would like use it in my Ubuntu 16.04 system.
So I tried to install joystick and jscalbrator to confiure the device.



Following commands where used:



sudo apt install joystick


Tried to test it with



 jstest-gtk


Output :



The program 'jstest-gtk' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:sudo apt install jstest-gtk


I tried to install it.



Output image 1



Then



sudo apt-get install jscalibrator


Output image 2



I tried antimicro,but got the error : E: Unable to locate package antimicro
And



sudo apt-get install xboxdrv


Completed



sudo xboxdrv –detach-kernel-driver


Error :
-- [ ERROR ] ------------------------------------------------------
No Xbox or Xbox360 controller found



Later used lsusb to find my device and got Bus 002 Device 009: ID 0079:0006 DragonRise Inc. PC TWIN SHOCK Gamepad
lsusb -vd 0079:0006
Output:



Output image 3



Output image 4



Then



xboxdrv --debug --device-by-id 0079:0006 --type xbox360 --detach-kernel-driver


Output image 5



jscal -c /dev/input/js0


Output:



Output image 6



Output image 7



I dont know what else to do.



PS:Hope I provided all the necessary information regarding my problem.
