Re: Logic3 USB Dance Mat

Any chance of a bump in the direction of which FM I should be Ring?

I've googled every query I can think of - tried forums - banging it
together myself. I'm truly stuck - any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Cheers,

Alan.

Hi All,

I've attempted to write a driver for the logic3 usb dance mat.

It "works" without a driver, but appears as a keyboard (though no
event node - at least with the setup I've got). And the directions
function as
Q        Up       E
Left     S  Right
Z      Down    C

As well as an enter and escape up the top - predictably mapped.

So my attempt was to fuse the xpad driver with the usbhid driver to
form some freakish combination where I could remap those keys to
buttons. The attempt lies here http://www.binaryiris.com/l3usbmat.c

The first problem I had was that the mat was still recognized as a
keyboard - so I added it's details to hid-core.c in the blacklist to
prevent it from using the usbhid driver. However while that stopped it
and my module loads ok - it doesn't create any dev nodes and I'm
completely out of ideas.

Any help is hugely appreciated. (oh and I would like to try submit
this upstream once it's working - though waiting until it's ready to
find out how to do that is probably more appropriate.)

Cheers,

Alan.
