Same error on my end! It seems the spacenavd 0.3 package for Ubuntu
does not set up the init script properly. Looking at the source, both
versions use the same path to the socket file, so I'm sure you could

I started this project with the latest versions: spacenavd 0.5 and
libspnav 0.2.2 on Ubuntu 11.04.

In which case, which ubuntu? I'm on 10.04 at home, and 11.04 at work;
there's spacenavd 0.3 at home and spacenavd 0.5
Hm... it's correct to start spacenavd with sudo so it can open a
socket and wait for client connections. That first error message is
from libspnav (linked into blender). I took the easy route and
installed the spacenavd package in Ubuntu, which also took care of
launching it properly. If anyone rea

There's a new option in the 3D mouse popup menu. It works in turntable
mode, and will work in trackball also after dinner.
Setting this option makes orbit unusable for me, but hopefully usable
for those of you who have your brains wired differently!

This is probably a bit of a useless comment, but I remember the 2.4x
implementation of orbiting the space navigator always seemed terribly
awkward. That old way was inverted compared to the 3ds max plugin that came
with the 3dconnexion driver, and the 3ds max version always felt much easier

Well be sure to share some of that, maybe I'll suddenly get it :D
Thanks for the option, will test and report back ASAP. Also the open
source driver seems much nicer, no need for that annoying window open
all the time. happy

Gah sorry for triple posting :)
When you navigate your normal view (not fly mode) you do it in object
space and not in camera space, ie: drag mouse to the left and "camera"
orbits to the right, that is why this mode should really work inverted
as it is right now. It's really what feels natural

I don't know what are they smoking to expect this behavior, it's
impossible! in fly mode it works fine tough, I really hope this isn't
the default. I expect it to work like the old test program (cube) in

built just fine for me.
