Title: Phantom Joystick Interference
Post by: ihlp on April 16, 2005, 07:41:33 pm

I had installed Freespace 2 from the Loki installer Linux CDs and finally got it running after grabbing the *.vp archives gotten via eDonkey (http://www3.sympatico.ca/kbros/fs2/index.html) (otherwise it would complain about not being able to parse this or that *.tbl file).  Everything more or less worked as it should, except if I enabled mouse flight control I would end up constantly rotating diagonally.  Attempting to change any of the ". . . Axis" keybindings would immediately set it to "Joystick Z Axis."

Does anyone know what the issue might be or where I ought to start looking?

• Logitech TrackMan Wheel (http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/US/EN,crid=2150,contentid=5002,detail=2) trackball
  
• Simple Direct Media Layer (SDL) (http://www.libsdl.org) 1.2.7
  
• Gentoo Linux (http://www.gentoo.org)
