Message-ID: <4816BF6E.5060205@gmail.com> (raw)
Background:
I have a PS1 controller connected to my PC via USB. I know it works,
because I'm able to read data from /dev/input/js0 and actually use this
in several native linux games.
Two questions:
1) In Dosemu, I have no clue what's wrong, but at least one of my DOS
games can't figure out there's a joystick. I have this set in .dosemurc.
Relevant lines:
$_joy_device = "/dev/input/js0" # 1st and 2nd joystick device
$_joy_dos_min = (1) # range for joystick axis readings, must be > 0
$_joy_dos_max = (150) # avoid setting this to > 250
$_joy_granularity = (1) # the higher, the less sensitive - useful if
you have a wobbly joystick
$_ joy_latency = (1) # delay between nonblocking linux joystick
reads
2) Is there a recommended joystick tester for dos? I found "joytest.exe"
somewhere a few weeks ago, but can't remember where. It seems to
indicate I have correctly set up js0 on my box, and it's carrying over
to DOS.
Thanks in advance,
JD
