(Dmitry, do you > need any help?) No, I just need more free time to finally get to it. Actually, if it's attached as uhid, it may already work in e.g. SDL games. If it doesn't, it - Uses some non-standart report (i.e. reporting buttons/axes as 'vendor-specific' values, which software doesn't know how to deal with). In this case the report should be analyzed and a simple wrapper driver may be written) - Is the same case as with my M$ joystick, which uses standart, but a just a bit unusual report, which e.g. SDL is unable to parse. This should be fixed by my long-planned rewrite of HID parser for SDL, which will also be useable in OIS and possibly other libs. Let's start with usbhidctl -f /dev/uhid0 -r -- Dmitry Marakasov . 55B5 0596 FF1E 8D84 5F56 9510 D35A 80DD F9D2 F77D amdmi3@amdmi3.ru ..: jabber: amdmi3@jabber.ru http://www.amdmi3.ru
