Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2007 17:54:58 +0200 From: Christopher GAUTIER <krys via.ecp.fr> To: sdl@lists.libsdl.org Subject: [SDL] SDL_INPUT_LINUXEV vs SDL_JOYSTICK_LINUXEVHello all, There seems to be a slight inconsistency between the SDL_INPUT_LINUXEV define (used in src/joystick/linux/), and SDL_JOYSTICK_LINUXEV defined in include/SDL_config.h. SDL_JOYSTICK_LINUXEV is never used, and SDL_INPUT_LINUXEV is not mentioned in SDL_config.h.in (though set by the ./configure script). This has the unfortunate effect of breaking the joystick detection on linux boxes where /dev/input/event* is defined, but not /dev/(input/)?js*. Trivial patch included. Cheers.
