it seems like the old
Code:
modprobe joydev
modprobe gamecon gc=0,1,0,0,0,0
no longer seems to work in kernel 2.6.4. Looking around in joystick-parport seems to indicate that I now need to pass a parameter to the kernel. I've tried passing gamecon.map=0,1,0,0,0,0 to the kernel at boot, and then tried the above code to load the module, but to no avail (as far as I can tell). In fact, everything I had tried before passing that parameter to the kernel acted the same after rebooting with that parameter passed in.
also,
Code:
modprobe gamecon gc=0,1,0,0,0,0
returns this (of course regardless of the parameter above):
Code:
FATAL: Error inserting gamecon
(/lib/modules/2.6.4-54.5-default/kernel/drivers/input/joystick/gamecon.ko):
Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
strangely enough, using this command:
Code:
modprobe gamecon map=0,1,0,0,0,0
returns a different error:
Code:
FATAL: Error inserting gamecon
(/lib/modules/2.6.4-54.5-default/kernel/drivers/input/joystick/gamecon.ko):
No such device
(also this error is returned if I use just "modprobe gamecon")
This is probably something really simple, but I've researched and tried all variety of things I can think of for three hours now, with no luck yet.
Please tell me what I need to do to get these pads working. (btw, I already know what the comma-separated numbers are for, so there's no need to explain that. =)
Thanks for the help! =)
