No controller in 1.0 - still works in 0.9

Post by s_illes79 »

Hi,

My Spektrum DXi6 is working perfectly in Heli-x 0.9, no problem there

but not in 1.0.

There was a popup message during first startup that a controllas has been found and needs to be configured, I did all the steps, however the axis indicator were not moving at all.

It looks like it has found the controller but not able to use it. Log:

Set new path for the resources: /home/illes/tmp/HELI-X/resources/
Set new path for the user files: /home/illes/tmp/HELI-X/files/
Using openGLLayer JOGL_AWT
Found 11 display modes
Failed to open device (/dev/input/event8): Failed to open device /dev/input/event8 (13)

Failed to open device (/dev/input/event6): Failed to open device /dev/input/event6 (13)

Failed to open device (/dev/input/event7): Failed to open device /dev/input/event7 (13)

Failed to open device (/dev/input/event5): Failed to open device /dev/input/event5 (13)

Failed to open device (/dev/input/event0): Failed to open device /dev/input/event0 (13)

Failed to open device (/dev/input/event1): Failed to open device /dev/input/event1 (13)

Linux plugin claims to have found 4 controllers
Controller found: Name: ? PPM (? PPM )
Using Stick ? PPM
Digital component found:Trigger
Digital component found:Thumb
Digital component found:Thumb 2
Analog component found:x

Controller configuration file found: /home/illes/tmp/HELI-X/files/controller/PPM.xml
Controller configuration file /home/illes/tmp/HELI-X/files/controller/PPM.xml read

dmesg:

Hello,

it looks as if you do not have enough permissions. Try this as root:

chmod o+rwx /dev/input/e*

HTH,

Michael
