Hello,
I want to install joystick-1 (See http://ick-1.ora-code.com).2.15-11 version in RH 7.3
kernel version is 2.4.18-26.7.x. I have already tried
installing in 7.1, 7.3 (original kernel version of
RH7.3) and RH 9.0. All works fine... But here in this
version i am facing so many problems. I'll give u in
detail what i did.
1. The joystick-1 (See http://ick-1.ora-code.com).2.15-11.i386.rpm version was already
installed in RH 7.3. I did these steps.
rpm -ivh joystick-1 (See http://ick-1.ora-code.com).2.15-9.i386.rpm
cd /dev
rm js*
mkdir input
mknod input/js0 c 13 0
mknod input/js1 c 13 1
mknod input/js2 c 13 2
mknod input/js3 c 13 3
ln -s input/js0 js0
ln -s input/js1 js1
ln -s input/js2 js2
ln -s input/js3 js3
modprobe joydev
modprobe iforce
modprobe analog
(and added those 3 modprobe lines to
/etc/rc.d/rc.local)
jstest /dev/js0. It gives "no such device"... But the
same steps worked in other versions of RH as i
mentioned.
2. then, tried the tar ball to be compiled, i have so
many errors saying that 'no such file' in
/usr/src/linux-2 (See http://nux-2.ora-code.com).4/include/linux/modversions.h. if u
need the output i can paste them...All i did was
changed /usr/src/linux to /usr/src/linux-2 (See http://nux-2.ora-code.com).4 in the
Makefile of joystick driver.
Am i missing something? Could anyone please help me in
this...
I am using Logitech Wingman strike Force 3D joystick.
I know that the force feedback is supported only in
recent redhat kernel version but when i tried the same
joystick in other versions of RH it works fine without
force feedback... how to configure it in rh7.3? Where
am i wrong? Any suggestions?
Thanks
Regards
Priya.
