Hi All,

I mentioned in a few other threads that I have been working on force 
feedback joystick actuator support.  This is now ready for alpha release 
(I'm just adding some configure.in).  If anyone has a PS2Linux kit 
beta/1.0 release please could you try out this patch please? (please 
email me and I will send you the patch and extra files you need)

This actuator support patch was really interesting to develop.  It is 
all in keeping with the platform independent SDL style and works well 
with the test programs. (I have created a new program testactuator.c too).

The actuator support was possible because I used the PS2Linux kernel 
module ps2dev.o.  Other architectures joysticks will not be affected by 
this other than the dummy functions. (Hopefully other architectures will 
have actuator support at some point.)

So, to summarise, please email me if you want this alpha patch.  I 
expect the final releas will follow in under one week or so.

Cheers

JG
