Package: flightgear Version: 1.9.1-1.1 Severity: normal Hi!
fgjs doesn't seem to work properly for me. I use an E_Sky 0905A flight controller (USB) with two sticks and no buttons. I tried "jstest" from the "joystick" package. It reports five axes and three buttons, although i have no buttons and onle four axes actually change values when I move the two controller sticks around. Axis 3 is inactive all the time. Here is some sample output from "jstest": r...@asus:/dev/input# jstest js0 Driver version is 2.1.0. Joystick (ADC) has 5 axes (X, Y, Z, Rx, Ry) and 3 buttons (Trigger, ThumbBtn, ThumbBtn2). Testing ... (interrupt to exit) Axes: 0: 0 1: 0 2: 0 3: 0 4: 0 Buttons: 0:off 1:off 2:off The controller works within flightgear but all the directions are reversed. That's why I'm trying fgjs. The program "js_demo" works fine and reports the changes on the axes 0,1,2,4 fine as I move the sticks. Here is what the output from js_test looks like: Joystick test program. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Joystick 0: "ADC" Joystick 1 not detected Joystick 2 not detected Joystick 3 not detected Joystick 4 not detected Joystick 5 not detected Joystick 6 not detected Joystick 7 not detected +--------------------JS.0----------------------+ | Btns Ax:0 Ax:1 Ax:2 Ax:3 Ax:4 | +----------------------------------------------+ ^C0000 -0.1 +0.1 +0.5 +0.0 -0.1 . . . | The problem is "fgjs". The first part regarding "dead-band" works fine, and it then goes on the ask about assignment. It asks me to move the axis corresponding to aileron (right). When I do this nothing happens. It also says that if I push a button this assignment will be skipped. But I don't have any buttons on my controller, and keyboard/mouse actions doen't seem to have any effect (apart from CTRL-c of course). But, if I move the stick vertically (corresponding to elevator), then fgjs reacts immediately and asks if I want that axis assigned to the ailerons, which of course I don't want to. So I'm not able to assign the horisontal movement of the right-hand stick to the aileron. On the other hand, the values displayed by js_demo are changing continuously for all four axes (0,1,2,4) when I move the sticks on my USB controller. The strange this was, one of the many times I tried fgjs, I experienced the opposite problem. The ailerons were easily assigned as soon as I moved the stick horizontally, but in that case fgjs did not react at all when it asked for the elevator assignement...
