If this isn't the correct venue for HID-related discussions, my appologies, I saw recent activity here relating to HID, also saw relatively recent activity elsewhere showing the HID code was moved out of the USB sub-tree over the last year, but also yet saw no seperate mailing list with 'HID' in the name on VGER. So... posting here. I've been working with the SixAxis controller recently, and have some questions before I build up a specific patch to improve support for the device under Linux. How much acceptance would a patch that uses a .raw_event hook to support the accelerometer/gyroscope data without needing a user-space app to drop back to the HIDRAW interface get? Would it be less acceptable to convert the accelerometer/gyroscope data into translation/rotation data that are more easilly used by a game directly instead of requiring games to specifically support motion sensor decoding? This would (in theory) lose some precision as the 10-bit values could likely not be exactly recovered. Code size would likely grow noticably as well. Would it be less acceptable to out-right replace the stock Descriptor the controller returns with one that re-organizes the controls to align better with other gamepads, since I'd already be re-writing portions of the raw input reports in the .raw_event hook? - Wolf with Wings -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
