hallo, i try to read accelleration data from sixaxis joystick via the sixaxis object into pd linux. when i attempt to open hidraw1, which is the sony sixaxis acording to dmesg, sixaxis object gives me an error. the joystick is known by the system and works fine with the hid object.
i tried sixhidtest (from pabr.org) as well and i get an error too. (permission denied).
it's the same with puredyne (2.6.24) and ubuntu 9.04 (2.6.28).
has anybody succeeded with this? thanks olli

Sounds like a permissions issue. You need to have permissions to read/write from the hidraw device. On my machine, the 'root' group has perms. So add yourself to the 'root' group.

or even better: create a new group "hid", configure udev to make /dev/hidraw* devices be of group "hid" and add yourself to group "hid".

Personally, I think its easier just to leave the configuration alone
and add yourself to the 'root' group. I suppose it might be slightly
less secure to do it that way..

ok, adding myself to root group did the job. thanks for your help. the sixaxis object now reports acceleration data, but only y and z axis. axis x shows a constant value of 414, even when i shake the controller.
is my controller broke?
thanks olli
