Gamepads, sway and supertuxkart.

I'm trying to get my gamepads to work with supertuxkart under
sway/wayland. I have four Logitech F310 attached, to a powered USB3
hub (not the main hub) on startup.

They don't show up in supertuxkart as input methods but at least one
does in https://gamepad-tester.com/
I know supertuxkart uses SDL2.

I don't really know how gamepad drivers work in either wayland or
FreeBSD so I don't know where to start looking. I'm new to FreeBSD on
the desktop but have used it on my server for a few years.

Below is all the debugging info I can think of.

I tried playing with usbconfig, but it hangs and does not return. I
have no problem with USB audio, mouse, keyboard so I am sure USB in
general is working fine.

From what I've been told it seems that gamepad support in FreeBSD is
somewhat limited sadly
