Has anyone successfully installed a joystick on Debian Wheezy?

That didn't work - even after an apt-get update, the apt-get install usbutils tells me the package is not available

hi
you do not need anything
open a terminal type command
lsusb
my output -> Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0079:0006 DragonRise Inc. PC TWIN SHOCK Gamepad
so gamepad is there
now the input name
in terminal type
less /proc/bus/input/devices close the view with q =quit
it is usaly the last entry
I: Bus=0003 Vendor=0079 Product=0006 Version=0110
N: Name="DragonRise Inc.   Generic   USB  Joystick  "
P: Phys=usb-0000:00:04.0-5/input0
S: Sysfs=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:04.0/usb4/4-5/4-5:1.0/0003:0079:0006.0001/input/input11
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=event10 js0 

so the name is Joystick of the Gamepad

open a mashine can be also a SIM mashine
home the mashine
goto MASHINE in top bar HAL_View
type in the entryfield offcause your name "Joystick"
loadusr -W hal_input -KARL Joystick

lsusb is not available- because usbutils package is not installed. Which cannot be found - an apt-get tells me it is not available

You can probably get lsusb from the archive repositories.

The problem you have is likely to be due to Wheezy being end-of-line and out of support (it is really very old)
