Saitek X52Pro joystick driver for Linux
|
|
=======================================
|
|
|
|
[](https://www.travis-ci.org/nirenjan/x52pro-linux)
|
|
|
|
This project adds a new driver for the Saitek/MadCatz X52 Pro flight
|
|
control system. The X52 pro is a HOTAS (hand on throttle and stick)
|
|
with 7 axes, 39 buttons, 1 hat and 1 thumbstick and a multi-function
|
|
display which is programmable.
|
|
|
|
Currently, only Windows drivers are available from Saitek PLC, which
|
|
led me to develop a new Linux driver which can program the MFD and
|
|
the individual LEDs on the joystick. The standard usbhid driver is
|
|
capable of reading the joystick, but it cannot control the MFD or LEDs.
|
|
|
|
Most of the extra functionality can be handled from userspace. See
|
|
the individual folders for README information.
