I realize this is off-topic, but I was hoping someone here could shed a
little light... please respond off-list.
After playing with & contributing to Myth for several months, I finally
decided to give MythGame and XMame a try. I've got everything set up, and
have been having some nostalgic fun playing Pac-Man on my big-screen TV :-)
So, now I've pulled a couple of old joysticks out of my basement, and would
like to get them working, but no success. The closest I've come is to get
the buttons working, but I get no response to joystick axis movement (this
with the 'jstest' program). I think my difficulties are related to using
ALSA, as the kernel input/joystick drivers reportedly work well out of the
box or with OSS. Does anybody have an analog joystick working with ALSA
that can give me some pointers, specifically re: /etc/modules.conf ?
Relevant setup information:
Stock 2.4.20 kernel with:
- Input Core, USB OHCI, USB HID compiled in
- joystick/gameport support as modules (gameport, joydev, analog, ns558,
cs461x)
ALSA 0.9.3 built with joystick support
- onboard sound/gameport (CMI8738) using snd-cmipci driver
- Hercules Fortissimo III w/gameport using snd-cs46xx driver
I've combed the ALSA mailing list archives, and everything says I should be
able to get my snd-cs46xx driver to work with the Hercules gameport, but no
luck.
Any help greatly appreciated!
TIA,
JAC
