Hello, I've read the documentation about force feedback in Documentation/input/ff.txt. But I'm rather unsure how to use it actually. So far I understood this you have to use /dev/input/eventX to access your ff- device. But normally only root has read and write access to this device files, while a joystick is used normally using /dev/input/jsX which can be used by a non-root user. So my actual question is: How can I use force feedback of a joystick without setting global read/write permissions to /dev/input/eventX? Or may I even be able to use force feedback using /dev/input/jsX? Other thing: Is it possible that on line 52 in Documentation/input/ff.txt the declaration of the features array is wrong? > #52 unsigned long features[1 + FF_MAX/sizeof(unsigned long)]; IMO it has to be declared like this: > unsigned long features[1 + FF_MAX/ (8 * sizeof(unsigned long))]; Which creates actually a Bit array, not an Byte array.
