Mouse not working in lr-mame2003

hhromic

@albecacif just to confirm, can you execute groups ? this should show you all the groups the user belongs to. Did you reboot right?

albecacif

pi@retropie:~ $ groups
pi adm dialout cdrom sudo audio video plugdev games users input netdev gpio i2c spi

Yes, I rebooted the system

grant2258

can you the output of

 ls -al /dev/input/by-path/

and

ls -al /dev/input/by-id/

Note that I have a keyboard with an integrated pad (mouse) and the USB trackball connected

is your Logitech working when you select mouse index 1 in RA?

albecacif

No, I´ve just set it in RA and is not responding

grant2258

i can tell you mouse is working fine in ra in my windows machine will need to plug a mouse and keyboard in my pi and see if it works there

albecacif

The keyboard is working fine. Only the mouse fails.

grant2258

i was asking because of this in your log

[INFO] [udev]: Keyboard #0 (/dev/input/event0).
[INFO] [udev]: Keyboard #1 (/dev/input/event2).
[INFO] [udev]: Keyboard #2 (/dev/input/mouse1).

grant2258

test your mouse in mame2003 with outrun believe it or not.

left click will accelerate
moving the mouse will turn the car

grant2258

this isnt working on linux either ill try asking the retroarch ladies and gents

hhromic

@grant2258 after the feedback it looks like indeed it is an RA issue then.

Great that you will scalate it to the RA guys. As a hint, my best guess of where the problem might be is in this post: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/20004/mouse-as-a-zapper-lr-fceumm-rpi-3-b/29
I don't have time nowadays to debug it myself unfortunately :( Thanks!

albecacif

Hi,

The outrun version that I have only runs on FBalpha.

Thanks a lot for your help :) I think this is a RA issue since it works fine in a 1.6.x version.

mitu

Maybe it's this issue in the RetroArch's issue tracker ?

grant2258

@mitu i have fixed this i have a pull req it
https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/pull/7730

@grant2258 good stuff! hope it gets merged

grant2258

well its one line change and is identical to the touchpad condition not sure what the issue is there with merging it i mean.

grant2258

ok ive tidied the code up ill take a look later where the script is to compile retroarch to see if my mini keyboard is working on retropie now.

grant2258

tested and working on the pie both my rii mini keyboard and Logitech.

@grant2258 sounds good! it can be a while before RA releases a new stable version, so when your PR gets approved and merged, maybe we can quickly backport your patch to RetroPie's RA. What do you think @BuZz ?
