gamepad/joystick

Hello, I'm trying to install my Dualshock 3 (PS3 gamepad) in my FreeBSD 10.3. On Archlinux it works out of box, but on FreeBSD I don't know how it works. I read some of this but I don't find much documentation. Thanks.

Hello dear FreeBSD community. I'm trying to access a joystick (or better said two) through usbhid However, when using hid_start_parse (desc, 1, 2) I can't only receive the item with the 2nd report ID (I also get the data from the Item with the Report ID 1). So I wanted to ask if I'm doing...

Two pieces of software that I use often and would love to see in FreeBSD are AntiMicro and QuiteRSS. AntiMicro is an excellent keyboard to gamepad/joystick mapping utility. Its main purpose is to allow the use of gamepads/joysticks in games that do not have built-in support. It is open source...

Hi, The xboxdrv driver is used in order to control an Xbox pad on Linux. Could someone create a port or package please? https://github.com/Grumbel/xboxdrv Thanks a lot :)

Greetings all, I'm only a newbie, but have been reading and using FreeBSD for some time now. I began making a serious effort at FreeBSD just before 8.0 arrived, or thereabouts. Trying to get away from Microsoft, but I have some software investment (mostly NT4 era apps) so I need a MS Windows...

Hello all, first time poster and fairly recent FreeBSD convert after jumping from Slackware. Anyway, I've run into a minor issue with using USB gamepads/joysticks on FreeBSD, and was hoping someone could help or alternatively let me know that I should file a bug report (I'd wager the former is...

Dear all, I am trying to configure devd or devfs rules to always create a specific /dev name for a couple of devices (gamepads/game controllers). I would like for them to always have the same /dev name that way one is not picked up instead of the other if I have them both plugged in. Is this...

Hi, My laptop has a touchpad with two buttons and a small pad, which allows scrolling in both directions. Is there support for it and how can I enable it? Currently it only acts as third mouse button. The best of the best would be then that this setting works with with the touchpad, but if i...

2 issues 1. I disabled the uhid module from kernel to test my driver. Emulators will recognize my driver if I create a symbolic link from my driver to /dev/uhid0. Is there a way I can get applications to recognize my driver without doing this? 2. The emulators will recognize only certain...

So I have plugged my Xbox 360 controller in via usb, and all is detected. Unfortunately the light just flashes on the controller and I am unable to use it to play any of my games. I am wondering if anyone has successfully got the controller to work under FreeBSD. ugen0.2: <Controller Microsoft...

Hello, I have a cheap but cool Thrustmaster gamepad and I want to use it for playing games in FreeBSD emulators. I tried to configure it but I really don't now very much about this process. Here is what I've done. [list=1] I installed xf86-input-joystick and uhidd from ports I added these...

I'm trying to get my USB joystick working with the uhidd daemon. I know that the linux-js port is broken and won't build, but I have seen forum posts that suggest I use the uhidd daemon to enable a USB controller. From /var/log/dmesg: ugen0.2: <awecades.com> at usbus0 uhid0: <awecades.com USB...

Hi everyone, Last July, I wrote a program called Joytran, which translates joystick events to keyboard and mouse events. It has been available in the ports tree (emulators/joytran) since 2011 October, but it occurred to me that my target audience of *BSD users (specifically FreeBSD) are likely...

I'm trying to play old SNES games on FreeBSD (9.0), using an original Nintendo controller and a USB adapter for it. The controller is recognised as uhid0 and detected by zsnes. But all controller inputs are echoed 2 or 3 times. As a result, gameplay is jerky and pretty much impossible. Any...

I have a Logitech F310 USB gamepad. It's actually part of the reason I switched to FreeBSD in the first place, since it works under FreeBSD but not Linux (yes, really, and yes, I tried lots of things). I wanted to use it with the mupen64plus emulator, but mupen doesn't have a way to configure...

Hi everyone! This is my first HOWTO!:) Sometimes I play different games on the emulator SNES9x and play on the keyboard is not very convenient. I remembered that I have a USB Gamepad (Logitech Dual Action â„¢ Gamepad). http://www.logitech.com/en-us/gaming...rs/devices/288 So I decided to...

Hi all, I m playing on my FreeBD-Box for years, using mouse and keyboard. But, nowadays, is it possible to run a gamepad properly on FreeBSD ? So, i need some feedbacks, to buy a gamepad. Not just to know what are the best ones, but, which are the ones that will statisfy my needs...

Hi all. Just got usb joystick (Genius MaxFighter F-23U), it seems to work in FreeBSD 8: ugen0.2: <vendor 0x0458> at usbus0 uhid0: <vendor 0x0458 4-axis 8-button joystick, class 0/0, rev 1.00/1.02, addr 2> on usbus0 I run FlightGear, and I'm able to control aircraft via joystick (it's...

Hi I was wondering if anyone knows what's involved in connecting an old, analog joystick (gameport DB15 plug) to USB and having it work in FreeBSD? There seems to be an old ujoy driver that someone wrote a while ago, and it looks like PC-BSD use it. I have no idea what hardware adapter I...

Hello, I am trying to use a usb joypad device with zsnes version 1.51 obtained via pkg_add but I get an error message saying "ZSNES could not find any joysticks" upon exiting the program. I read on the mailing list that usb joypads only work with certain programs and that the code for joypad...
