 |
|
Hi all.
I can't get my joystick working on my system, but it used to work before. Its a generic joystick.
System recognize it but udev does not create /dev/input/js* neither /dev/js*. I searched into /dev/input/by-path/ but there was nothing related to a joystick.
| Code: | marcelo@MARSELLUS ~ $ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0ac8:305b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. ZC0305 Webcam
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0079:0006 DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick |
Kernel configuration:
| Code: | | [*] Joysticks/Gamepads ---> |
| Code: | | <*> Joystick interface |
I got the following answer when monitoring udev, plugging and unplugging the device:
| Code: | MARSELLUS linux # udevadm monitor
monitor will print the received events for:
UDEV - the event which udev sends out after rule processing
KERNEL - the kernel uevent

Any ideas?

Fernandenhoff,
You probably have something missing from your kernel.
emerge wgetpaste if you don't have it then run
| Code: | | wgetpaste /usr/src/linux/.config |
this puts your kernel config file on the web, as it won't fit in a post any more.
Post the URL that wgetpaste returns so we can look at your kernel.

Fernandenhoff,
Your | Code: | | Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0079:0006 DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick |
isn't quite as generic as you may think.
Your kernel says | Code: | | # CONFIG_HID_DRAGONRISE is not set |
When you enable | Code: | | DragonRise Inc. game controller |
in menuconfig, you will see a new item | Code: | | DragonRise Inc. force feedback (NEW) |
You probably want that too. Google suggests you may have a force feedback controller.
Rebuild and reinstall you kernel.
