Subject: [Bug 1332444] Re: CH Pedals are not working in 14.04
 

So if even with "sudo evtest" you don't get any events from the pedals
with evtest when you push the pedals or cause any kind of movement with
them, that isn't a permission problem. That sounds either like a
hardware problem (more likely if it only happens sporadically) or some
bug in the kernel's evdev driver for the joystick.

Title:
  CH Pedals are not working in 14.04

Status in systemd:
  Fix Released
Status in “systemd” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  I've created a rule in lib/udev/rules.d as 99-xplane.rules:
  # CH PRO PEDALS USB
  KERNEL=="event*", ATTRS{idProduct}=="00f2", ATTRS{idVendor}=="068e", MODE="0666"

  and even do at every x-plane start:
  cd /dev/input
  sudo setfacl --modify u:michael:rw- --modify g::rw- --modify o::rw- *

  but still my CH Pedals are often not working. (sometimes yes but not
  always)

  I expect my CH pedals to work out of the box like on Windows.
  But even with the above they only work sometimes.-
