hi miller, hi all
is the joystick object mentioned here on the list some weeks ago available somewhere ?
we would desperately need it inan installation next week....
another topic:: externals that are included with pd (e.g.: all the "extra"-stuff, some audio examples (the "shift" objects), seem to have very inconsistent makefiles par example: you cannot create the demo-externals in doc/6.externs when compiling pd (although the "make all" option seems to try to do so) because "makefile.linux" is missing in the doc/6.externs directory :: instead of "make -f makefile.linux" the proper way to install these would be "make -f makefile pd_linux" by the way :: is it absolutely necessary to use absolute paths in makefiles (like /usr/people/msp/pd/pd/src or /home/msp/pd/src); it is quite inconvient to edit all the makefiles seperately; maybe we should define a global make-variable somewhere, or just use relative paths these are surely "minor" bugs, but quite annoying
cheers, have fun, mfg.dsa.a iohannes
Hi iohannes,
The joystick stuff is on http://man104nfs.ucsd.edu/~mpuckett/176.00s/joystick/main.htm
and it needs much work. But it's in better shape than the parallel port output thing. I've also got a not-quite-functional video input object for Gem (Pix_video) for Linux. If anyone wants to get burned on it, let me know; otherwise I'll get it working better before releasing it.
I'm sorry about the makefile mess. I was unaware of having absolute paths in them and will try to clean that up...
However, I'm off to Bourges for a Max/MSP symposium, and won't have any hacking time until week after next.
cheers Miller

thanks a lot, we'll have a look :-)

ah this is another thing i will desperately need sometimes in the near (?) future :: so let me burn

Thanks, additionally for the description:
on an es1371:
magic is in modules.conf: options es1371 joystick=0x200
whereby the "0x200" is the io address of the joystickboard wherever it is, i think there are eight possibilities and they get configured by PCI-PnP.

PS: If you collect hardwareinterfaces, I made acess to the paralell port via just writing reading to the io-adress on a PC to drive 8-mini conductors for musician, if you want collect I can send you.
