I attended a garage sale today, and accidentally bought a Saitek P880 joypad for $2 (brand new, never used).
If I plug it in, I can see it in jscalibrator. By all accounts it works well. I am a member of group plugdev. I tried to follow this web page, which also talks about Saitek P880: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/emcinfo.pl?A_New_Approach_For_Using_Joypads_With_EMC2 However, EMC2 saw NO signals from this joystick, if I tried to do halcmd show all, no buttons or anything would appear in the list. I decided to comment out everything and left only one statement: loadusr -W hal_input -KRAL Saitek Even then nothing was listed (no buttons or other things). I have a feeling that I am missing something simple, maybe something in xorg.conf or whatever. lsmod shows joydev loaded. if I do cat /dev/inupt/js0 and press buttons, I get some characters output so I assume that it is working. Any ideas? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
