Post subject:  qjoypad installation problems

I have a usb Logitec gamepad that works with snes9x and would like to use it for the other game emulators in mythGame. One option I found was to use qjoypad which will map the gamepad inputs as keystrokes which would work for all of the emulators, as well as Mythfrontend. I downloaded the source but was not able to get it to install correctly. I got the following error when I ran "./configure":

"g++ -c -pipe -Wall -W -O2 -DDEVDIR='"/dev/input"' -DICON24='"/usr/local/share/pixmaps/qjoypad/icon24.png"' -DICON64='"/usr/local/share/pixmaps/qjoypad/icon64.png"' -DQT_NO_DEBUG -I/usr/share/qt3/mkspecs/default -I. -I. -Itrayicon -I/include -o axis.o axis.cpp
In file included from axis.h:8,
from axis.cpp:1:

component.h:11:21: qobject.h: No such file or directory

component.h:22: error: `QTextStream' was not declared in this scope
component.h:22: error: parse error before `)' token
In file included from axis.h:8,

... it continues like this.

I am fairly new to linux so there is probably something obvious but I could not find anything by searching. Thanks for the help.

I'm guessing you need to
Code:
export QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt3
Before compiling... Why not just download the deb from the site?

Thanks Cesman,
I was able to install from the Debian binary. Now I get an error when trying to run qjoypad.

"qjoypad: relocation error: qjoypad: undefined symbol: _ZN7QWidget7RepaintEb"

... but I'll check the documentation for that.

In case anyone is interested, I was able to get Qjoypad working by setting the following options for qjoypad:
"qjoypad --notray --device /dev/"
I put this in my ~home/mythtv/.fvwm/.fvwm2rc just before starting Myth. I think this file is equivilant to ~home/mythtv/.fluxbox/apps for newer versions of Knoppmyth. Anyhow, now I can control Mythfrontend, all of the game emulators and the PC games with a USB gamepad. It is a lot simpler than building an IR receiver and setting up LIRC. Thanks again for the help Cesman.

Hi jolson

Exactly which model Logitech USB gamepad do you have ????

I just want to confirm before I might proceed, been after an entry about using mine to control myth for ages.......

I have a Logitech Cordless RumblePad 2. It was detected without any problems and has essentially worked right out of the box (except for setting up the additional software). I'm not sure about other Logitech gamepads but I thought that most of them were Linux compatible.
