analog stick config options break controls - farlsmagee - 11-03-2019

im working on my first build. i have the add-on board and some psp sticks but i cant get the configuration to recognize the gamepad when i uncomment the analog stick configuration. 

using /etc/modprobe.d/mk_arcade_joystick.conf

scenario 1 - base configuration = 

options mk_arcade_joystick_rpi map=4 gpio=4,17,6,5,19,26,16,24,23,18,15,14,-20,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1 hkmode=2

abxy works fine, but the l2/r2 buttons arent recognized. this is expected. 

scenario 2 - i change the config to

#options mk_arcade_joystick_rpi map=4 gpio=4,17,6,5,19,26,16,24,23,18,15,14,-20,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1 hkmode=2
#this next line is for use with 4 extra buttons (maybe L2,R2,C,Z)
options mk_arcade_joystick_rpi map=4 gpio=4,17,6,5,19,26,16,24,23,18,15,14,-20,42,43,41,40,-1,-1,-1,-1 hkmode=2

now abxy works fine, plus l2/r2 is recognized and i can configure the input fine. this is expected.

scenario 3 - i change config to uncomment the analog stick line, and change the gpio settings

#options mk_arcade_joystick_rpi map=4 gpio=4,17,6,5,19,26,16,24,23,18,15,14,-20,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1 hkmode=2
#this next line is for use with 4 extra buttons (maybe L2,R2,C,Z)
#options mk_arcade_joystick_rpi map=4 gpio=4,17,6,5,19,26,16,24,23,18,15,14,-20,42,43,41,40,-1,-1,-1,-1 hkmode=2
#this next line is for use with a single PSP1000 analog stick
#options mk_arcade_joystick_rpi map=4 hkmode=2 i2cbus=1 x1addr=72 y1addr=77 gpio=4,17,6,5,19,26,16,24,23,18,15,14,-20,42,43,-1,41,-1,-1,-1,-1
#this next line is for use with 2 PSP1000 analog sticks
options mk_arcade_joystick_rpi map=4 hkmode=2 i2cbus=1 x1addr=72 y1addr=77 x2addr=75 y2addr=79 gpio=4,17,6,5,19,26,16,24,23,18,15,14,-20,42,43,41,40,-1,-1,-1

when i use the above config, reboot and try to configure the input, the gamepad is totally not recognized. in all scenarios, I'm using a usb keyboard to navigate to the configure input menu, but when i try to enable the psp sticks, it really doesnt like it Sad 

any ideas what could be wrong? everything is physically connected well on the board so i'm guessing its a driver thing? my image runs mk_arcade_joystick_rpi -v 0.1.6.0


RE: analog stick config options break controls - Porcinus - 11-04-2019

There is maybe a false contact on pin 44/45 (I2C).
Can you add " debug=1 " to the uncommented line, reboot and post 'sudo dmesg' and 'sudo i2cdetect -y 1' output please.

Could you log in and run 

dmesg | grep mk_arcade

and show the output here?


Also, you have gpio=4,17,6,5,19,26,16,24,23,18,15,14,-20,42,43,41,40,-1,-1,-1
but what are you doing with GPIO 40?  I think that shouldn't be there.  42 and 43 would usually be the L2/R2.  41 would often be the HOTKEY (or any other input you want).  

40 would typically be the fan.

RE: analog stick config options break controls - Porcinus - 11-06-2019

I2C is OK but :
[ 2.341891] mk_arcade_joystick_rpi: at least one device must be specified

3 possibility in mk_arcade_joystick.conf: all lines are commented, 2 lines are uncommented or a error in the uncommented line.

"options mk_arcade_joystick_rpi ..." need to be in one line, commented or not.

Edit: "gpio" part need 21 numbers, you have 20, add ",-1" at the end and retry please


RE: analog stick config options break controls - Porcinus - 11-06-2019

You don't need to restart at each time to test, open 2 ssh connection:
- on the first one : 'sudo dmesg -w'
- for the second, 'sudo modprobe -r mk_arcade_joystick_rpi', make your edit and 'sudo modprobe mk_arcade_joystick_rpi'

The first shell should show something like : "mk_arcade_joystick_rpi: Freeplay Button Driver" plus additionnal infos


RE: analog stick config options break controls - farlsmagee - 11-06-2019

i made sure to have 21 gpio positions and then just killed the driver and restarted it. viola... sticks are working!

however... 

I must have wired the right stick wrong bc the x axis thought it is was the y axis and vice versa. no worries... i just changed the config to swap the x1 and y1 addresses... problem solved. 



options mk_arcade_joystick_rpi map=4 hkmode=2 i2cbus=1 x1addr=77 y1addr=72 x2addr=75 y2addr=79 gpio=4,17,6,5,19,26,16,24,23,18,15,14,-20,42,43,-1,41,-1,-1,-1,-1

next problem... my left stick i think is wired correclty, but to get the wires to curl around to the back correctly, i mounted it upside down on my board so both the x and y axis are inverted (up is down and down is up. right is left and left is right). can i get around this with a config change or do i have to physically turn the stick?


RE: analog stick config options break controls - Porcinus - 11-06-2019

Can you try to add "x1dir=-1 y1dir=-1 " and restart the driver using modprobe commands please.

Edit: Sorry, it is -1 not 1 :/


RE: analog stick config options break controls - farlsmagee - 11-16-2019

xdir=-1 and ydir=-1 worked. now the sticks are all aligned properly. i've got some bad stick drift, but ill come back to that one later.

new problem now... when i launch a n64 game, the controllers work fine, sticks and all. however, when i launch any other system rom, all controls stop working. in the bottom left, it says the controller is configured as controller #1 in port 0, but then no controls work. if i sudo in and stop the driver (while still in game), then restart the driver, it pops up in the bottom left again that the controller is configured as controller #1 in port 0, and starts working. i can play the game normally. i can exit to the menu and go launch any other rom... same problem... except if i launch n64 games.

here is my active config line - and i can confirm there are no other active config lines.

options mk_arcade_joystick_rpi map=4 hkmode=2 i2cbus=1 x1addr=77 y1addr=72 x2addr=75 y2addr=79 x2dir=-1 y2dir=-1 x1params=550,3600,16,300 y1params=550,3600,16,300 x2params=550,3600,16,300 y2params=550,3660,16,300 gpio=4,17,6,5,19,26,16,24,23,18,15,14,-20,42,43,-1,41,-1,-1,-1,-1
