Bug#739061: RD: gamepad not detected

[Paul Jones]

Alright, I took a nap and cleared my head.

I noticed that on my one machine (which does not run systemd) the
permissions on the joystick device were 0644, but on my other machine which
does run systemd the permissions were 0600 and when I would change the
permissions to 0644 sdl would correctly detect my joystick.

I spent some time on the sytemd irc channel, it turns out startx may startx
on a different tty than where you logged in for that session, causing the
systemd session to break.

I opened a bug against the xinit package. #743015
