I attempted to post this question earlier but I don't believe the post showed up. If it did I apologize for the duplicate post.
I have a BBB running Debian jessie 8.2 and the linux kernel is 4.1.12-ti-r29. I've connected a thumb joystick as follows vcc - P9_32 gnd - P9_34 hor - P9_36 ver - P9_38 I did not connect the switch to anything because it isn't needed. I've attempted to read the output of the joystick using information i found online and have failed miserably. The numerous tutorials/instructions say that you have to enable the analog inputs on the beagle bone. The instructions for doing so involve using bone_cape. My BBB doesn't seem to have bone_cape and further research seems to indicate that bone_cape is the old way of doing things and isn't available for the kernel that i'm running. I have yet to find out how I would enable the analog inputs on my setup. If some one knows of a resource that i've missed that will shed some light on the subject I'd greatly appreciate it.
