I connected a PS2 DualShock 2 Controller to my Linux PC with a USB adapter; it
worked perfectly well in other Linux games, e.g. the shooter "Jamestown". So
the pad itself is functional and recognized by Linux. But in my LIBGDX game,
trying to determine the "pov(0)" value does not return any result when pressing
the DPAD or moving the analog sticks; however, it does so when I use a "normal"
PC USB-Pad instead of the DualShock. So, the "getPov()"-method works with a
regular PC USB pad, but not the DualShock on an adapter.
When I press the "X" button of the DualShock pad, I get this stacktrace:
Exception in thread "LWJGL Application"
com.badlogic.gdx.utils.GdxRuntimeException:
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 0
at com.badlogic.gdx.backends.lwjgl.LwjglApplication$1.run(LwjglApplication.java:113)
Caused by: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 0
at com.badlogic.gdx.controllers.desktop.ois.OisJoystick.getPov(OisJoystick.java:108)
at com.badlogic.gdx.controllers.desktop.OisControllers$OisController.getPov(OisControllers.java:134)
at com.bombermaniacs.gdx.game.GameScreen.doRender(GameScreen.java:127)
So, while I'm trying to determine the state of the DPAD, I get no reaction on
that, but instead pressing a face button results in this exception. I'm a bit
at a loss; with a normal PC USB pad, it works, so the LIBGDX code certainly
isn't completely faulty. On the other hand, other software on my system can
handle the DualShock without problems, so there must be an issue in the
controller handling layer of LIBGDX.
I used LIBGDX 0.9.8, Java 1.6.0_20, on OpenSUSE Linux 11.4 (Kernel 2.6.37.6).
Here is the log output when connecting the pad:

Please let me know if I can provide any other useful information.
