What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. install ltris
2. use the default config
3. ./jkeys example-config.joy ltris

What is the expected output?
the keys should be simulated

What do you see instead?
an execption:

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
release from 6.12.2013
os: ubuntu 13.10 x86_64

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Starting Stepmania (3.9) with jkeys makes stepmania to complain about
sound device unavailable i finally Stepmania doesn't start.
2. Starting Stepmania without jkeys, everything is ok, the program finds
sound device and starts

Output from Stepmania:
"Error: Couldn't find a sound driver that works"

LinuxBox, latest svn.

PS.
Is it possible to fix with jkeys dance pads axis problem, when you can't
push both directional buttons because it sees them as axis not buttons.
However axis after calibration shows for left_low=-32767, left_high=32767,
both pressed=255, same for up and down.

Thank in advance.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a configuration file
2. Start jkeys using the configuration file and firefox
3. Start playing (works only for the first few button presses)
4. jkeys stops working

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It should continue working as expected, but instead it stops working after a 
few button presses.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I synced to the latest version from the svn repo. I am on 64 bit Ubuntu 9.10 
(Karmic) with 2.6.31-22-generic kernel.

Please provide any additional information below.

Can this be ported to mac os?

I noticed that it uses xlib. can the x specific stuff be taken out so it can be 
used on mac os.

Does it support having the axes on the joysticks to send key event based on 
going passed a certain point along an axis.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start stepmania without jkeys > normal sound, dancepad not recognized
2. Start stepmania with jkeys > dancepad recognized, no sound

I was surprised that the program had any effect on sound output. Is there
some way to use jkeys and keep audio?

I am using jkeys on ubuntu 9.10 and 9.04

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?


Please provide any additional information below.

Not exactly issue, rather wish to extend functionality.

Problem: stumbled upon particular game (linux port of Descent Freespace 2), 
input code of which allows only one joystick. Judging by googled out posts in 
miscellaneous related forums i'm not the only one that is hurt by that with 
having joystick/rudder pedals/trackir as separate devices and are upto mercy or 
free development resources of particular programs/games to rewrite their input 
layer to support multiple devices.
Hence i wonder - if it's possible to write some code, that lists all the 
capabilities/axis/buttons/hats from actual devices, and presents all of them in 
one, "virtual joystick"? I see it like making real joystick device files 
unreadable directly by user via setting permissions on them, but readable to 
some joystick virtualisation software, eg. yours :), that simply passes forth 
and back from real devices to virtual unified one. Probably only some 
duplicated button/or other control ID incrementing needed apart from blind 
passing of data to/from real ones + presenting some device ID of it's own.

As your software seems a bit related to this field, i decided to post here and 
ask on what you think about adding such functionality to it?

I wrote a very simple code that works great with other games, but it does not 
work with Bub Brothers in Ubuntu 10.10. I know very little about computers, but 
does it have something to do with the fact that the game (although it runs on 
the computer) needs to open a browser in order launch the game?

This is the only message I get in the command line that is different from the 
ones I get when playing other games.

Thanks a lot!

   I would love it if someone would post ANY working configuration of an Xbox 360 controller.  That way I can check it against my configuration.  I've tried all button numbers and configurations that I can think of, includeing calling them hats, mouse axis' and standard axis'.  
On the other hand, I've had a lot of fun using my logitech controller with 
minor bugs.  If anyone is interested, I have posted a configuration file for 
that that works like a charm on Vulture-nethack.  But with the 360 controller, 
I come up empty every time.
   One thing I have noticed with the Logitech controller is that if you use every OTHER button instead of the "mouse Click" first, the mouse click button won't freeze.  Otherwise the controller commands will all freeze about half the time.
   Awesome project!  Thanks for any help you may be able to lend.
