Joystick connection troubles
Hello,
I'm trying to connect a joystick to a particular embedded Linux system (FOX board) that hasn't got the majority of the tools you can currently use in a normal distribution: expecially, it hasn't got commands like "lspci", "hwinfo" and so on. The strange thing is that I can't find the position where the device node is placed: I've searched onto the /dev/ folder, but there isn't anything like jsXXX or input/jsXXX... I've read the /var/log/messages, but honestly I haven't understood it so much: Quote:
I hope that someone could help me Thank You ma1069 |
Update...
Already solved :) Thnxs anyway |
You can tell other people how you solved it. You know, there are lot of guys, searching old posts instead of asking the same question.

Ok ;)
I've discovered that the device doesn't create the node by himself! YOU have to create it, with this simple instruction: Code:
cd /dev/ Code:
exec mknod js0 c 13 0 [edit: I'm sorry, i haven't posted the solution before because i've found it in a similar old post of this same site... but when I've posted my question I didn't know what to search exactly! It was my first try with joysticks in linux... I didn't even know what a Node is, exactly] |
