F710 issue on jetson xavier with ubuntu 18.04 and ros melodic #138

On Nvidia Jetson AGX Xavier with Ubuntu 18.04 and ROS melodic joy_node doesn't publish anything for Logitech F710 (direct input mode) despite it claims to detect joystic at /dev/inputs/js0. Jstest run for /dev/inputs/js0 also doesn't notice any buttons being pressed. The same gamepad connected to a laptop with Ubuntu 16.04 and ROS kinetic works well.

Unfortunately, this is out of scope for this driver since, as you have mentioned, other tools do not see the button presses either. This is likely due to a bug in the driver supporting the USB ports on the Jetson. Sorry I can't be of more help.
