Hello. I am experiencing driver crashes when I connect a Logitech F310 joystick/gamepad under Linux and Ekos. This is with both stable and bleeding edge kstars indi library versions. Device is established under /dev/input/js0.

The crash is instantaneous as soon as I hit connect.

I have the joystick set to the "xinput" mode (there is a button on the back to set either xinput or directinput) although the driver crashes at either setting.

jstest /dev/input/js0 confirms that the Linux driver is responding to command inputs from the joystick.

Please advise, thank you!
