Hello everyone.
(hope this is the right section to post this...)
First of all I want to thank the devs for this little gem which is the Dolphin emulator.
Before boring everyone to death with I've done and what not, I have a small (big) question.
Is my understanding that Dolphin can provide force feedback in Linux if compiled with SDL 1.3. It is however not clear to me if someone (devs or users) actually managed to see this in action.
I've searched the forum and Dolphin's page on code.google with no success.
I managed to compile a working version of Dolphin with SDL 1.3 from source (actually several of them) but unfortunately force feedback is still elusive.
So, the question: Is Dolphin in its current state able to provide force feedback in Linux or just provides a support for future (SDL 1.3.) releases?
I see in the source code a SDL 1.3 folder but I'm not skilled enough to figure out if it has a present purpose or is there for future releases.
I know that SDL 1.3 (stable) isn't out there yet so maybe it isn't suppose to work yet.
Some things to mention:
The emulator is working fine, the joystick is recognized and working properly.
The force feedback is working on my gamepad (Logitech Rumblepad 2), tested with several games through Wine and even with a (native Linux) PS1 emulator.
Thanks for you attention and have a nice day!
