DFP on Linux - Discussion & Development

[bopApocalypse]

well, little bit of an update...

hacked up the code to be dedicated to the DFP - it'll be easier right now, ATMO, to just maintain two separate tools to manage the two separate devices.

I found that, at least on my system, the attempt to rebind was just happening too soon - by increasing the sleep() call, the --nativemode works just fine - /dev/input/event4 reappears. [or, simply running DFPmanage --reconnect after running --nativemode will do the trick too].

Not much progress from there though. Sending the commands to switch to 900 degree works (wheel can be turned 900 degrees), but after that, /dev/input/event4 disappears, and I get the same parse/probe errors as listed in my initial post.

running reconnect at this point doesn't do anything.

Guess now it's time to start really learning something about the linux USB HID layer...
