| tjaalton | pwnguin: duh, you're right | 06:29 |
|---|---|---|
| tjaalton | pwnguin: actually, seems that those lines were just missing from the latest upload, for whatever the reason | 06:49 |
| tjaalton | bryce: my rumblepad works right with the joystick driver. the problem is that the fdi file needs a lot of "quirks" because every device that evdev can't handle needs to be listed | 09:11 |
| tjaalton | but since that is done upstream it just takes some time to get all the devices in there | 09:11 |
| tjaalton | (gather the information from distros etc) | 09:12 |
| bryce | hmm | 09:12 |
| bryce | yeah I was playing with mnemtok's controller tonight trying to get it working | 09:12 |
| tjaalton | like the synaptics fdi file is in upstream master | 09:12 |
| soren | tjaalton: Don't worry any more about the evdev+kvm tragedy. It's 80% fixed, and the remaining 20% is on the way. | 09:14 |
| mvo | what happend? | 09:14 |
| tjaalton | soren: *phew* | 09:15 |
| soren | mvo: Was that a question for me? | 09:15 |
| mvo | soren: yes, I was curious what happend so that its fixed now (well, almost) | 09:17 |
| soren | mvo: We came up with a way to detect if evdev was used on the host and added an entirely new translation mechanism for that. | 09:18 |
| tjaalton | bryce: btw, joystick isn't installed by default | 09:19 |
| tjaalton | dunno if it should be or not | 09:19 |
| tjaalton | probably | 09:19 |
| bryce | yeah I think it should | 09:19 |
| tjaalton | Installed-Size: 24 | 09:19 |
| soren | mvo: In gtk-vnc, that is. | 09:19 |
| tjaalton | probably won't fit on the cd :) | 09:20 |
| mvo | soren: aha, ok. so I should finally abandon the old xvncviewer :) ? | 09:20 |
| soren | mvo: Which accounts for all the frontends we really care about (virt-manager, vinagre, virt-viewer, etc). SDL (i.e. the frontend you get if you run kvm from the command line) is still lacking, but that's on its way. | 09:20 |
| soren | mvo: There's gvncviewer, which uses gtk-vnc. | 09:21 |
| mvo | excellent news, I like that | 09:21 |
| soren | mvo: I don't think it has a "-via" option, though. | 09:21 |
| soren | I use that all the time. | 09:21 |
| tseliot | tjaalton: can you upload these drivers for me, please? http://albertomilone.com/ubuntu/newlrm/pitti/lista_ia.txt | 11:16 |
| tjaalton | tseliot: ok, will do | 11:43 |
| tseliot | tjaalton: thanks | 11:44 |
| tjaalton | tseliot: uploaded | 11:52 |
| * mvo waves to tseliot | 11:52 | |
| tseliot | mvo: hi ;) | 11:53 |
| tseliot | tjaalton: great, thanks again | 11:54 |
| pwnguin | well | 13:40 |
| pwnguin | the marketing copy on ubuntu.com says it just works" | 13:41 |
| pwnguin | I'm sure one or two people would say that joysticks are part of just working =/ | 13:44 |
| tseliot | pwnguin: "it just works" != "anything piece of hardware will work" ;) | 14:24 |
| tseliot | any | 14:24 |
| tseliot | not anything | 14:24 |
| pwnguin | im sure people will deliberately misconstrue it anyways | 14:24 |
| tseliot | of course | 14:25 |
| pwnguin | especially if it previously worked | 14:25 |
