Fixed bug #61 Date: Mon, 24 Feb 2003 13:35:11 +0800 From: "Leonidas" Subject: [SDL] Re: Trigger mouse wheel event -- not in X-environment I have looked into the codes for the IMPS/2 mouse wheel mode of fbcon driver. But I found something weird. Here's the original codes to set a mouse device into IMPS/2 mode in libSDL. In the file src/video/fbcon/SDL_fbevents.c In function static int set_imps2_mode(int fd) ... Uint8 set_imps2[] = {0xf3, 200, 0xf3, 100, 0xf3, 80}; Uint8 reset = 0xff; fd_set fdset; struct timeval tv; int retval = 0; // Set mouse device fd into IMPS/2 mode if ( write(fd, &set_imps2, sizeof(set_imps2)) == sizeof(set_imps2) ) { // ??? then RESET it..??? if (write(fd, &reset, sizeof (reset)) == sizeof (reset) ) { retval = 1; } } ........... Since it sets IMPS/2 mode then reset it, so you will never get a mouse into IMPS/2 mode to use its wheel. What I did to make the wheel usable is remove the RESET codes. .... if ( write(fd, &set_imps2, sizeof(set_imps2)) == sizeof(set_imps2) ) { /* if (write(fd, &reset, sizeof (reset)) == sizeof (reset) ) { } */ retval = 1; } .... And in FB_OpenMouse(_THIS) Make the device /dev/psaux to be setted into imps2 mode such that it can be detected its a imps/2 mouse or not. (my mouse device is on ps2, but the codes only set /dev/input/mice device originally) Then I have done, I can use the mouse wheel when SDL uses frame buff driver. I dont exactly know I did right or wrong, I just change it for my usuage. Correct me please, if I did something wrong. Best regards, Li Tsung Lin IAP Product Dept. Engineer EeRise Corp.

><P
>Set a callback to run after the specified number of milliseconds has
elapsed. The callback function is passed the current timer interval
and returns the next timer interval.  If the returned value is the
same as the one passed in, the periodic alarm continues, otherwise a
new alarm is scheduled.</P
><P
>To cancel a currently running timer, call
<TT
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>SDL_SetTimer(0, NULL);</TT
></P
><P
>The timer callback function may run in a different thread than your
main constant, and so shouldn't call any functions from within itself.</P
><P
>The maximum resolution of this timer is 10 ms, which means that if
you request a 16 ms timer, your callback will run approximately 20 ms
later on an unloaded system.  If you wanted to set a flag signaling
a frame update at 30 frames per second (every 33 ms), you might set a
timer for 30 ms (see example below).</P
><P
>If you use this function, you need to pass <TT
