joydev bug with playstation USB adapter

Hi, I have two playstation USB adpters, one of them with this [1] "lsusb
-v" (the other I don't have access to ATM) and they both give me the
following buggy behaviour: the range of the sticks is limited - i.e.
value 32767 is reached when the stick is only about half-way through
its run, leaving a big dead zone after that. This happens on all axes
and recalibrating with "jscal -c" didn't help.

I'm on an up-to-date Archlinux, kernel 3.7.5, and have tried various
kernel versions down to 3.0.1 with same results.

Is there any other info I can provide?

thanks,
renato
