Title: Gyration Air Mouse Not Working
Post by: tmwillett on May 06, 2011, 03:34:05 am
I've purchased a Gyration Air Mouse (GYM1100NA) like the one in the Air Mouse wiki, but LMCE does not detect it as anything other than an ordinary 3-button mouse.  None of the 3 extra buttons are working for F6-F7-F8.  I've tried replacing the hid.ko file using instructions in the wiki, but still no joy.  I added the device (1812) to the Orbiter, but that didn't change anything.  I need those 3 buttons to work.  Otherwise, this whole project is a bust for me since the wife and kids will need the easy way to manipulate LMCE. 

Does anyone else have this mouse working?  If so, can you throw me a bone?

Thanks

can you give me the output of lsusb ? I need to see if this is a different device.

I was looking around some more, and I think this is a newer version, as the one I see a template for is the GC1005 which is REALLY hard to find now. 

Thanks!

This is a different device, which will need a new device template.

You can see the device template for the GC1005, which has two bits of device data, Configuration (which maps key codes to entries in RemoteMapping), and Mapping, which re-maps a scancode to another scancode. Mapping is used for the GC1005 to remap the three grey buttons (which emit scan codes that X can decode, to scan codes for F6, F7, and F8, respectively.

I'm running into a problem when it comes to detecting those 3 grey buttons.  I've used xev and xinput, and it only detects outputs from the L+R buttons, the wheel, and motion of the mouse.  None of the 3 grey buttons are displaying any output using those two utilities.  Do you know of another tool I can use to detect the scan codes?  It looks like it detects 9 buttons when it is initially loaded by Xorg, according to /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

This is what is displayed in the log when I plug in the USB receiver for the mouse:

Ironically, I have a laptop running Ubuntu 10.10.  When it loads on the laptop, it finds 12 buttons not 9, but I get the same results of no output from those buttons.

Thoughts?

Does anyone know of any other tools to use to detect the button scan codes other than xev and xinput?

Do those buttons emit data when you cat the input device directly? If they do, you may be able to map them using my GenericHIDInterface bits... search on the wiki for GenericHIDInterface.

Kinda sort of...  It shows up under /dev/input/by-id/ as the Gyration RF Mouse (see output below), but when I cat the device, I don't get any output..  I was able to get output from those 3 buttons by doing a cat on /dev/hidraw1 (below).  Now the question is, how do I get that HID device mapped so I can use those buttons?  I'm thinking that I need to configure the xorg.conf file, but I'm not sure how to configure it.  I can't seem to find anything that gives me the exact settings that I need anywhere on the web. 

Here are a bunch of command outputs to help you see what I'm seeing:

That's the first time I've seen ANY output from those buttons on a Linux system, so at least I know now that it is receiving something.  Now, how can I take the HID raw data and map it to a device template?

Any help is much appreciated, as I think I'm getting closer.

http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/Creating_a_Device_Template_for_a_Remote_that_uses_the_kernel_input_subsystem <-- read that.

be sure to edit /etc/pluto.conf and comment out the loglevels line temporarily so you can see all the system log messages, and reload the router.

No joy.  I don't get any output to the media director log using the instructions in the wiki and commenting out the logging line in pluto.conf.  The only output I can get from those buttons is via cat /dev/hidraw1..  Any other ideas? 
Title: Re: Gyration Air Mouse Not Working
Post by: tschak909 on May 11, 2011, 10:37:40 am
That makes no sense, as GenericHIDInterface is always running, you should grep for lines called GenericHID in the log as you're tailing it.

If there is a device in /dev/input/by-id ....then it should find it (because I deliberately grab handles to all those event devices and listen to them.)

(None of the other buttons output anything into the log)

If I cat the device directly using cat /dev/input/event10, I get nothing:

dcerouter_1017654:~# cat /dev/input/event10
^C

Cat the hidraw1 device and I get:

That output is not from the main 2 mouse buttons, but rather the 3 extra one's that I need to get working, and movement of the mouse.  Nothing else provides output..

Weird I know..  Do you think it's a driver issue?  The mouse works great as a mouse.  L+R works, scroll works, movement is fine, but those 3 buttons do not seem to want to cooperate.

I'm going to try to connect it to my Win7 machine and run USBSnoop on it today and see if that gives me anything to go on.

Any other ideas?

What about event9 ? remember, Gyration/Movea devices are composite devices.

I'll try it and let you know.   I was assuming that was set up for a keyboard, but assumptions do get me in trouble a lot.

Unfortunately, I got the same results with event9 as with event10..  Nothing.  Do I need to configure my xorg.conf file to recognize the buttons?  I've tried to configure it and show it with 9 and 12 buttons, but it doesn't make a difference with that option, but are there others that be more specific?

I've made a little progress on this, but I'm stuck again.  I still do not get any output from the actual device (/dev/input/mouse2 - or event9, or event10), but I do get output when I do a cat to the /dev/hidraw1 device.  I've tried dumping it to hexdump, and it gives me some consistent data, but I can't make heads or tails of what it is, or how I can use it..  See below:

dcerouter_1017654:/dev/input# ls -al by-id
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 100 2011-05-25 18:49 .
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 380 2011-05-25 18:49 ..
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   9 2011-05-25 18:49 usb-Movea__Inc._Movea_RF_Receiver-event-kbd -> ../event9
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  10 2011-05-25 18:49 usb-Movea__Inc._Movea_RF_Receiver-event-mouse -> ../event10
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   9 2011-05-25 18:49 usb-Movea__Inc._Movea_RF_Receiver-mouse -> ../mouse2

Pressing the left button out of the group of 3 extra buttons on the Air Mouse (not the normal left mouse button) gives me the following output:

dcerouter_1017654:/dev# cat hidraw1 | hexdump -C

Pressing the middle button out of the 3-button group gives me this output:

dcerouter_1017654:/dev# cat hidraw1 | hexdump -C
00000000  01 00 00 00 00 05 40 01  00 00 00 00 05 00 01 00  |......@.........|

And finally, pressing the right button out of the 3-button group gives me this output:

dcerouter_1017654:/dev# cat hidraw1 | hexdump -C
00000000  01 00 00 00 00 05 10 01  00 00 00 00 05 00 01 00  |................|

As you can see, each button gives consistent data, but I can't really make heads or tails out of what it actually converts to.  Any ideas on how I can possible take this hexdump data and turn it into something that I can make a template out of for the HID device?

I've stumped quite a few people on this already, but these are new mice vs those old 1005's that are hard to find, and LMCE could greatly benefit from it being added if we can figure out the codes.

As usual, any help is GREATLY appreciated.

TIA

I use a Beagle USB sniffer to help decode protocol bits. That may have to happen here, as I do not recognize those frames right off the bat.

Hmm..  $400 for a Beagle sniffer.  Not exactly cheap.  I may have to cut my losses and abandon this effort for an older remote until someone else can fix the problem.  That's what I get for trying to be bleeding edge.  ;-)  Is the Gyration 3101US a stable remote to use, or is there a better choice?  I'm planning on having a core/hybrid and 4 MediaDirectors.  I want to use the same thing on all of them.

Thanks!

Yes, the 3101 works well as an on screen remote. Keep in mind there are other choices as well, such as running the Orbiter software on a tablet.
