segfault on 32-bit debian linux with kernel linux-2.6.25

Post by marcus »

I recently plugged my 3d spacepilot into my new computer (it worked like a charm on my old machine) which is 32 bit debian GNU/Linux with a linux 2.6.25 kernel.

Running 3dxware -d usb segfaults, but the spacepilot does light up. I have tried -d /dev/mouse1 as suggested in other threads but I have no such device. How do I check which device the spacepilot is actually connected to? Or more to the point; how do I get this thing to work?

I get this from `dmesg`;

Hi marcus,

I've an idea. Can you please tell me the version of your 3dxsrv (3dxsrv -v)?
The excerpt from 'dmesg' is ok, of course except for the last line! ;)

3DxWareUNIX = V1.2.17, ID 3493

The very same one that works fine on my other system. Main difference there is that one is running kernel 2.6.24 instead of the .25.

Hi marcus,

I just wanted to be sure that it is not an older version that could have an other issue. I've sent you an email with a beta version, that hopefully fixes the problem.

Please let me know if this version works!
