    Hi,

    I see this in /proc/bus/input/devices:

    I: Bus=0014 Vendor=0001 Product=000f Version=0100
    N: Name="Analog 3-axis 4-button joystick"
    P: Phys=<NULL>/input0
    H: Handlers=js0
    B: EV=b
    B: KEY=1b 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
    B: ABS=83

    The <NULL> tag seems to confuse hotplug's input.rc. Where does it come
    from? How can the kernel see the Joystick without knowing the phys
    address?

    (This was also filed as SourceForge.net bug #887724 to the linux-hotplug
    project.)

    TIA,

    --
