How to use gamepads in Slacko?

[Semme]

OK. Aside from analog, joydev, snd_ens1370 & gameport modules being loaded, there's lots I don't know.

If you wanna continue, dwnld and install this. Yes, debs'll go too.

Now since I think your controller's a shrimp or two short a cocktail, you'll need to "modprobe" a few extra modules and see if we can't get a rise outta jstest.

You're gonna go one for one, meaning load a module >> test.

You'll be looking for something I can't physically test.. A device response.

Let's start with this one:

Code: Select all

modprobe emu10k1-gp

Followed by these, one @ a time and toggling the various gamepad buttons between each:

Code: Select all

jstest --normal
jstest --old
jstest /dev/js0
jstest /dev/js1

If nothing, you're gonna repeat this sequence after loading these modules:

Code: Select all

modprobe grip
modprobe grip_mp

If still nothing, give this one a shot:

Code: Select all

modprobe ns558

Again, without a controller, it's gray matter to me.

Good luck.

And before mixing that highball, gzip and attach this to your reply:

Code: Select all

cat /proc/bus/input/devices > devices.txt
