Re: [Emc-users] joypad quit working when upgrading from 2.3.5 to 2.4
Looks like this is your problem: Debug file information: Can not find -sec EMC -var NML_FILE -num 1 Unrecognized line skipped: POC FMS LEN DIAMCOMMENT standard_pinout.hal:22: Warning: linkpp command is deprecated, use 'net' HAL: ERROR: pin_new called after hal_ready joypad.hal:19: Pin 'joypad.axis.0' does not exist Looks like you've got a bunch of deprecated stuff. How many versions ago are those files from? Looks like a comment line isn't commented out for the Unrecognized line skipped: stuff. can you call out the new pin in line 19 before hal_ready is called out?

Re: [Emc-users] joypad quit working when upgrading from 2.3.5 to 2.4
The hal_joystick component was deprecated in emc 2.2[1] and was intended to be removed in emc 2.4. Instead, use hal_input[2], which will require additional modifications to joypad.hal due to different pin names. hal_input, which has existed since emc2.2, supports more devices than hal_joystick, and also does not suffer from the race condition bug that led us to deprecate hal_joystick. Since in emc 2.4 hal_joystick will never succesfully load, it will be removed for the upcoming 2.4.1 release.

Kirk -- ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users I've been using a joypad for at least three years.
