Title: Joystick goes haywire in Linux dual display setup
Post by: Lance on June 12, 2010, 06:08:58 pm
I tried this solution:
http://superuser.com/questions/17959/linux-joystick-seems-mis-calibrated-in-an-sdl-game-freespace-2-open

But, that didn't work for me until I disabled the second monitor in my two display setup,
then restarted the X server.

Now, with only one display(monitor) the joystick works correctly.

I really prefer to use both of my monitors.
In fact, when I get my new Radeon "HD 5750" next week, I plan to go to a 3 monitor setup (anybody using that in FS2_Open?).

Even if dual monitors are not used (are they?) in FS2, switching to one,
then back to two displays after playing is a pain.

Does anyone have a fix for this?

Is this just a Linux issue?
