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
