Reassign Joystick path

So, I have a 'Wacom_Co._Ltd._Cintiq_13HD_Touch_Tablet'. The kernel thinks it is a joystick, so /dev/input/js0 gets assigned to this. Now I want to play a game, and it is (understandably) looking for a joystick at js0, but that is where the tablet is, not my joystick (which is at js1). Is there a way to tell the kernel to assign the tablet to something like js10 so a real joystick/controller gets assigned to js0? I have tried messing with udev rules by making a /etc/udev/rules.d/73-persistent-joystick.rules, but the syslog gives this error: > NAME="input/js9" ignored, kernel device nodes can not be renamed; please fix it in /etc/udev/rules.d/73-persistent-joystick.rules:1 Note: currently, I am running this workaround before starting the game: > cd /dev/input; sudo sh -c "mv js0 js10; mv js1 js0"
