linuxconsoletools (test and config utilities for the input subsystem) The Linux Console Project evolves from the command-line tools (jscal, jstest, and jsattach) which were included in Version 1 of the Linux Joystick Driver. The original set of tools has been expanded and now includes utilities to test and configure joysticks, connect legacy devices to the kernel's input subsystem (providing support for serial mice, touchscreens etc.), and test the input event layer. Optional dependency: SDL2. This is only required for ffmvforce (force orientation test for force-feedback devices). If SDL2 is not installed, ffmvforce won't be included in the package. Notes: - This replaces the "joystick" build that was previously available. - Included in this build is a simple udev rule to automatically restore the joystick configuration(s); see the package README in the documentation directory for more specific rules. - By default, this build includes a newer version of /usr/bin/inputattach, which overwrites the one from Slackware's gpm package. The new inputattach should behave identically to the old one, except that it supports many more devices, and is capable of running as a daemon. It also has a man page, which the old one didn't have. If you have problems with the new inputattach, reinstall gpm and then rebuild this package with GPM_COMPAT=yes set in the environment. With this option, the new inputattach will be installed as /usr/bin/inputattach-lct.
