I'm getting the above error while using the jetsoncar teleoperation package using joystick. "ls /dev/input" shows js0 even when there is no joystick connected. I have already set param for joynode at js1 and joy node is running fine.

after you launched the nodes, rosparam get <js input="" name="" param=""> (use rosparam list to find it). It's possible that another node may set this param back to js0 which is a problem for you. Alternatively, you can set a fixed name for your device. https://unix.stackexchange.com/questi...</js>
