linuxconsoletools (test and config utilities for the input subsystem)
|
|
|
|
The Linux Console Project evolves from the command-line tools (jscal,
|
|
jstest, and jsattach) which were included in Version 1 of the Linux
|
|
Joystick Driver.
|
|
|
|
The original set of tools has been expanded and now includes utilities
|
|
to test and configure joysticks, connect legacy devices to the kernel's
|
|
input subsystem (providing support for serial mice, touchscreens etc.),
|
|
and test the input event layer.
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
|
|
- This replaces the "joystick" build that was previously available.
|
|
|
|
- Included in this build is a simple udev rule to automatically restore
|
|
the joystick configuration(s); see the package README in the
|
|
documentation directory for more specific rules.
|
|
|
|
- By default, this build includes a new version of /usr/bin/inputattach,
|
|
which overwrites the one from Slackware's gpm package. The new
|
|
inputattach should behave identically to the old one, except
|
|
that it supports many more devices, and is capable of running
|
|
as a daemon. It also has a man page, which the old one didn't
|
|
have. If you have problems with the new inputattach, reinstall
|
|
gpm and then rebuild this package with GPM_COMPAT=yes set in the
|
|
environment. With this option, the new inputattach will be installed
|
|
as /usr/bin/inputattach-lct.
