And with this adapter, it is finally possible. Because the standard Sun keyboards use TTL RS232 at 1200 bps to talk to the Suns, it's very easy to make them talk to any non-Sun computer by converting this to true RS232. All what you need is a MAX232 chip that'll take care about the correct voltage levels, and also some chip to invert the signals (CD4049 in the pic, I've used a 7400 quad-nand myself), since the MAX232 inverts them as well, and we don't need this. This all easily fits into a 25-pin serial connector. The schematic below was drawn by Leonardo M. Teixiera <leo...@in...>. <p> <div align=center> <img src="sunkbd.png" alt="Sun to RS232 interface schematic" width=578 height=366> </div> <p> <h2>Parport to AUX port adapter</h2> <p> In some cases one kbd port and one aux port is not enough and you may want to add another keyboard or mouse. You can use this adapter, together with the parkbd.c module for that. Schematics will follow sometime later. <p> <!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> <address> <p>Send any questions, comments, bug

Our charter is to clean up and properly maintain the Linux console sub system. There has been scattered work on the console going on for some time. This project will try to pull it all together into a coherent architecture from which we can generate clean patches for Linus and the core kernel team.<p> Right now the console subsystem has a couple of problems: <ol> <li> <li>Terminal emulation is much too intertwined with the lower levels of the console implementation (e.g. fbdev). Eventually terminal emulations should be loadable modules.<p> <li>The built-in ANSI X3.64/ECMA-48 terminal emulation is incomplete and in some respects incorrect.<p> </ol> There's demand for many features that have not yet been implemented. These include: <ul> <li> Multi-head operation -- console instances running on multiple (possibly dissimilar) video cards. <li> A scrollback buffer implemented in the console itself. <li> Support for different fonts, keymaps, and textmodes per VC. <li> Better Unicode support. </ul> <H1>Deliverables:</H1> This project aims to deliver these things:<p> <ol> <li> Ruby: A line of patches for 2.4.x that implements the heavy stuff; fbdev refactoring, multihead, scrollback, etc. These can't go in until 2.5.x.<p> </ol> <H1>Project Status:</H1> Development is moving fast.<p> <H1>People:</H1> <dl> <dt> <a href="mailto:jsi...@tr...">James Simmons</a> <dd> Project admin on SourceForge.

It's finally modular, and attempts to merge as much of architecture independent code as possible. For mice, keyboards, joysticks and other input devices it tries to create a simple, easy to program for and uniform API, with straightforward binding to XInput. <p> The project is progressing quite rapidly, already supporting all previously supported PC/x86 devices, and more. Support for other architectures is lagging a little, but that's going to be fixed soon. <p> Many of the drivers were improved significantly during the proces of rewriting them for the Input Driver project - for example serial MouseSystems mice have two times the refresh rate with the Input Drivers (48 updates/sec), which makes them finally comfortable to use, AT keyboards and PS/2 mice can be plugged in and out at runtime, without problems, analog joysticks have much better resolution (9-12 bits). No more problems with autorepeat on Toshiba laptops, because autorepeat is done by software. It will soon offer tighter integration with <a href="http://www.alsa-project.org">ALSA</a> sound drivers for better gameport support. And more and more. <p> Parts of the Input Driver project are already integrated in the kernel - the core, userland interface modules and USB input device drivers are a part of the <a href="http://www.linux-usb.org/">kernel USB support</a>. A patch was created to replace the in-kernel Joystick Driver project with new Input Drivers. It adds significant benefits and fixes many bugs. Because the joystick driver is self contained and because the existing USB input device support will be use, there is a hope this change will happen in the 2.4 kernel cycle. See <a href="joystick.html">http://www.suse.cz/development/input/joystick.html</a>. <p> Replacing current keyboard and mouse drivers is a much larger surgery to the kernel, although needed badly. Because of that, integration of the rest of the Input Driver project will have to wait till the release of a developmental 2.5 kernel. It will go together with the rest of the <a href="http://linuxconsole.sourceforge.net/">Linux Console Project</a>. <p> <h2><a name="news">News</a></h2> <p> 2000/08/19 - Fixed support for PSX pads<br> 2000/08/19 - Added IM Explorer support, changed mousedev to emulate IM Ex instead of GenPS/2 for 5 buttons<br> 2000/08/18 - Added support for IBM RapidAccess and Chicony multimedia keyboards<br> 2000/08/17 - Fixed ns558 to correctly allocate its i/o region.<br> 2000/08/17 - Added a link to Franz Sirl's <a href="http://home.munich.netsurf.de/Franz.Sirl/inputppc.html">Input/PPC</a> page<br> 2000/08/17 - Merged in kernel USB fixes, fixed GenPS/2 emulation<br> 2000/07/14 - Fixed direction gamepad in sidewinder<br> 2000/06/25 - Fixed gamecon and db9<br> 2000/06/24 - Fixed support for SpaceBall 4000 FLX<br> 2000/06/23 - Fixed oops in joydev, evdev and mousedev<br> 2000/06/22 - Joystick input drivers are in the 2.4.0-test2 kernel!<br> 2000/06/21 - Created a joystick-only input patch, see <a href="joystick.html">http://www.suse.cz/development/input/joystick.html</a><br> 2000/06/21 - Added support for ESS Solo1 and S3 SonicVibes PCI gameports<br> 2000/06/08 - Updated installation guidelines - see Quick Start<br> 2000/06/08 - Added support for two ThrustMaster DirectConnect joysticks on one gameport, fully functional<br> 2000/06/07 - Saitek Cyborg 3D support fully functional in the analog driver<br> 2000/06/06 - Added support for Gravis Xterminator DualControl, better support for Xterminator Digital<br> <p> <h2><a name="version">Current version</a></h2> <p> The Input Drivers are still under heavy development. Because of that, it is not convenient to make versioned tarball or even rpm/deb releases, because for them to be useful the releases would have to be too frequent. <p> We are using CVS for keeping and distriubiting the drivers right now. As soon as the driver reach some state where they wouldn't happen to be obsoleted by new versions every few days, I'll make a bigger release - 1.0.0 - of the drivers. For now, the drivers are in the same CVS tree as the <a href="http://linuxconsole.sourceforge.net/">Linux Console Project</a>. This is because they depend on each other a lot and thus it is useful to develop them together. Also, you might want to take a look at the <a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/?group_id=3063">SourceForge page</a> of the Console/Input project. <p> <h2><a name="documentation">Documentation</a></h2> <p> You can find some documentation in the <code>linux/Documentation/input</code> directory in the CVS tree - it's not much, but it should get you started. A lot of it will come later, when I'm finished with writing the drivers. Anyway, using and configuring the drivers is very straightforward, so I don't think you'll have any trouble with that. Should you have any, just mail me, the e-mail address is at the end of this page. <p> <!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> <address> <p>Send any questions, comments, bug reports to: <a href="mailto:vo...@su...">Vojtech Pavlik <vo...@su...></a></p> </address> <div align=center> <a href="http://www.suse.cz/"><img src="sponsor.png" alt="Sponsored by SuSE" border=0 width=298 height=61></a> </div> </td><td background="r3i.png"><img src="r3i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="l5i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td><td> </td><td><img SRC="r5i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="l7i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td><td background="m2i.png"> <img src="m2i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br> </td><td><img SRC="r7i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td></tr> </table> </body> </html> --- NEW FILE: joystick.html --- <!DOCTYPE "-//IETF//DTD HTML 3.2//EN" PUBLIC> <html> <head> <meta name="description" content="Linux Input drivers"> <meta name="keywords" content="joystick gamepad keyboard mouse wheel force feedback touchpad tablet input device linux driver gnu"> <title>Linux Input Drivers</title> <LINK REV=MADE HREF="mailto:vo...@su..."> </head> <body text="#000000" bgcolor="#ffffff"> <table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="100%" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <tr><td><img SRC="l1i.png" border=0 width=32 height=64 alt=""><br></td><td width="100%" background="m1i.png"> <img src="title.png" border=0 alt="Linux Input Drivers" width=512 height=64><br></td><td> <img SRC="r1i.png" border=0 width=32 height=64 alt=""><br></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="l2i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td><td></td><td> <img SRC="r2i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td></tr> <tr><td background="l3i.png"><img src="l3i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td><td> <div align=center><strong> <a href="http://www.suse.cz/development/">SuSE Labs</a> - <a href="index.html#introduction">Introduction</a> - <a href="index.html#news">News</a> - <a href="quick.html#download">Download</a> - <a href="joystick.html">Joysticks</a> - <a href="quick.html">Quick Start</a> - <a href="index.html#documentation">Documentation</a> - <a href="hardware.html">Supported Hardware</a> - <a href="adapters.html">Adapters</a> - <a href="links.html">Links</a><br> </strong></div></td><td background="r3i.png"><img src="r3i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="l4i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td><td> </td><td><img SRC="r4i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="l6i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td><td background="m2i.png"> <img src="m2i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td><td> <img src="r6i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="l2i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td><td> </td><td><img SRC="r2i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td></tr> <tr><td background="l3i.png"><img src="l3i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td><td> <!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> <h2>Joystick driver v2.0.0</h2> This is the next generation Linux joystick driver.

width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td><td> <!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> <h2>Quick Start</h2> This section describes how to download, compile and use the Input Drivers. Change to your source directory, fasten your seatbelts, and here we go: <p> <code> cd /usr/src<br> </code> <p> <h2><a name="download">Download</a></h2> <p> You can get the development tree and necessary utilities via <a href="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/ruby/?cvsroot=linuxconsole">CVS</a>. To access the CVS you can use the following commands (use an empty password): <p> <code> cvs -d :pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/linuxconsole login<br> cvs -z3 -d :pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/linuxconsole checkout ruby<br> </code> <p> Once you have downloaded the CVS, you can always update it to the most recent version using the following command: <p> <code> cvs -z3 update ruby<br> </code> <p> <h2>Patching</h2> <p> To compile and use the files you download, you first have to get a 2.4 kernel to use the drivers with. You can get it from <code><a href="ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/">ftp.kernel.org</a></code>. <p> <code> wget ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/linux-2.4.0-test1.tar.bz2<br> mv linux linux-old<br> tar xIvf linux-2.4.0-test1.tar.bz2<br> </code> <p> When you've got the kernel unpacked, you have to copy the ruby files over it, and clean files not used anymore: <p> <code> cd ruby/linux<br> cp -avP * ../../linux/<br> cd ../../linux<br> sh ../ruby/utils/remove-unused-files<br> </code> <p> <h2>Configuration</h2> <p> Then you configure the kernel: <p> <code> make menuconfig<br> </code> <p> This part is a little tricky. You have to select quite a bunch of options to have your system operate correctly. For a most usual setup with a PS/2 mouse and a AT keyboard you need to select: <p> <code> Input device support ---><br> Input device support<br> i8042 aux+kbd controller<br> AT and PS/2 keyboards<br> PS/2 mouse<br> Mouse interface<br> </code> <p> For a setup with an USB mouse and keyboard you'd use: <p> <code> USB support ---><br> Support for USB<br> Preliminary USB device filesystem<br> UHCI (Intel PIIX4, VIA, ...) support<br> OHCI (Compaq, iMacs, OPTi, SiS, ALi, ...) support<br> Input device support ---><br> Input device support<br> USB Human Interface Device<br> Mouse interface<br> </code> <p> For serial mice you need: <p> <code> Input device support ---><br> Serial port input line discipline<br> Serial mouse<br> Mouse interface<br> </code> <p> And in your init scripts a call to the inputattach utility (can be found in the utils subdir in the ruby tree). See the help for this utility about what the command line will be for your mouse - there are quite a couple different types of them. <p> <code> inputattach -t mman /dev/ttyS0 &<br> </code> <p> To get an analog joystick working, you add: <p> <code> Input device support ---><br> ns558 gameports<br> Analog joysticks and gamepads<br> Joystick interface<br> </code> <p> For other joystick types and gameport types you can select other joystick and gameport drivers if you have them. The same for mice, keyboards and other drivers. <p> When you're done with configuring the kernel, you compile and install it (make sure your /etc/lilo.conf has an entry for this new kernel): <p> <code> make dep modules modules_install bzImage<br> cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz<br> lilo<br> </code> <p> Then, to keep a working system after you boot with the new kernel, you also need to change a couple nodes in /dev: <p> <code> cd /dev<br> mkdir old<br> mv mouse js? old<br> mkdir input<br> cd input<br> mknod js0 c 13 0<br> mknod js1 c 13 1<br> mknod js2 c 13 2<br> mknod js3 c 13 3<br> mknod mouse0 c 13 32<br> mknod mouse1 c 13 33<br> mknod mouse2 c 13 34<br> mknod mouse3 c 13 35<br> mknod mice c 13 63<br> mknod event0 c 13 64<br> mknod event1 c 13 65<br> mknod event2 c 13 66<br> mknod event3 c 13 67<br> cd ..<br> ln -s input/js0 js0<br> ln -s input/js1 js1<br> ln -s input/mice mouse<br> </code> <p> After this, reboot, load any modules you didn't compile straight into the kernel, and everything should work. If it doesn't, well, something went wrong. <p> <!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> <address> <p>Send any questions, comments, bug reports to: <a href="mailto:vo...@su...">Vojtech Pavlik <vo...@su...></a></p> </address> <div align=center> <a href="http://www.suse.cz/"><img src="sponsor.png" alt="Sponsored by SuSE" border=0 width=298 height=61></a> </div> </td><td background="r3i.png"><img src="r3i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="l5i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td><td> </td><td><img SRC="r5i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="l7i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td><td background="m2i.png"> <img src="m2i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br> </td><td><img SRC="r7i.png" border=0 width=32 height=16 alt=""><br></td></tr> </table> </body> </html> |
