Prior to this change, libx52_vendor_command would leave the device handle untouched, even if the joystick was disconnected. This change will force applications to reconnect to the joystick after they encounter such a failure. |

Saitek X52Pro joystick driver for Linux
This project adds a new driver for the Saitek/MadCatz X52 Pro flight control system. The X52 pro is a HOTAS (hand on throttle and stick) with 7 axes, 39 buttons, 1 hat and 1 thumbstick and a multi-function display which is programmable.
Currently, only Windows drivers are available from Saitek PLC, which led me to develop a new Linux driver which can program the MFD and the individual LEDs on the joystick. The standard usbhid driver is capable of reading the joystick, but it cannot control the MFD or LEDs.
Most of the extra functionality can be handled from userspace. See the individual folders for README information.
