Thanks for the fast response. It sounds like it should be seen by the event node. I'm guessing to run the 'advj' utility to get the kernel name of the device, then just write another 'local rule' (like I did for the mice) - and s/b set to go:
3.2.1 event - Kernel Input-Event interface (Linux)
This driver works in Linux and it uses the new style input-event interface of the Linux kernel.
It supports more than one joystick or light-gun at the same time.
For USB devices this driver doesn't require any configuration. It's able to autodetect all the present hardware.
This driver is also able to correctly report the type of devices found. You should for example expects to have the gas pedal mapped on the gas control of the game.
One last question:
Do you need to calibrate whatever joysticks you're using w/ the GP-Wiz49 everytime you boot up the PC? Thanks!
I'll take your word for it. Linux is a bit outside of my current focal range, so at the moment, I have to defer to those with more experience with it.
With Windows, where the unsigned 8-bit reports are properly interpreted, no calibration is ever necessary. I can't say for sure with Linux. I would suspect, however, that the calibration utility (if a working one exists) would remember the devices and calibration data, and simply use the calibration data for the device when it is found. If this is the case, it should need to be done only once.
The Shipping estimate on your website isn't working .
Unfortunately, it's still not. Apparently the USPS is experiencing a very serious problem with their servers. After a long chat with our webhost, and finding nothing wrong on their end, I had a talk with the local postmaster. He is pulling his hair out just trying to file his reports. If I were to guess, it sounds like they may have been hacked in a big way, as robust data systems like the ones they surely use, don't have issues of this magnitude for as long as it seems to be going on.
In the meantime, domestic customers can still select the "Flat Rate Priority" option. If regular Priority mail ends up as less costly, we will change it before the order is charged. International customers will unfortunately need to be patient while this gets worked out. Hopefully, it won't be much longer.
