[Bug 1332444] Re: CH Pedals are not working in 14.04

 

Added kernel task for the lack of evdev events.

** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Description changed:

+ Summary:
+  - The joystick evdev device for the pedals doesn't get proper permissions (in udev/systemd)
+  - The pedal evdev device sometimes doesn't generate evdev events (linux)
+ 
+ 
+ -- 
+ 
  I've created a rule in lib/udev/rules.d as 99-xplane.rules:
  # CH PRO PEDALS USB
  KERNEL=="event*", ATTRS{idProduct}=="00f2", ATTRS{idVendor}=="068e", MODE="0666"
  
  and even do at every x-plane start:
  cd /dev/input
  sudo setfacl --modify u:michael:rw- --modify g::rw- --modify o::rw- *
  
  but still my CH Pedals are often not working. (sometimes yes but not
  always)

  I expect my CH pedals to work out of the box like on Windows.
  But even with the above they only work sometimes.-
