Of Linux, Mice, and DropTeam- Phonan Edition!

[Phonan]

I've been trying to get DT working on my Linux box for awhile now, but I just had to reinstall Ubuntu and now I'm having problems with my mouse- but only when controlling a vehicle. I can only rotate the x-axis to the right. It used to be turning in 90 degree increments but I turned my sensitivity down from 0.5 to .05 and it's much better, but I still can't move the y-axis at all or turn left! Any help would be appreciated, and here's the aiming section of my defaultkeyboard.controls which I'm using now.

</font><blockquote>code:</font><hr /><pre style="font-size:x-small; font-family: monospace;"><command name="lookDown" description="Aim Down/Up" isLinear="true" linear1Label="Down" linear2Label="Up">

<sensitivity>0.05</sensitivity>

<isInverted>false</isInverted>

<isLogrithmatic>false</isLogrithmatic>

<deadzone>0.00</deadzone>

<mouse>

<axis>1</axis>

</mouse>

</command>

<command name="lookRight" description="Aim Left/Right" isLinear="true" linear1Label="Left" linear2Label="Right">

<sensitivity>0.05</sensitivity>

<isInverted>false</isInverted>

<isLogrithmatic>false</isLogrithmatic>

<deadzone>0.00</deadzone>

<mouse>

<axis>0</axis>

</mouse>

</command> </pre>

Which Ubuntu are you using? I have a freshly updated 7.10 with an USB mouse and no problems.

I've got a fresh install of 7.10 and a generic (Durabrand or some such) ps/2 mouse. I tried a USB mouse from an iMac, and no luck there either. I have two monitors running right now- I doubt that has anything to do with it though...

Does the mouse always act strange or only when you´re targeting something? (happens to me on my linux install (ubuntu 7.10)

Yeah, read about your "drag mouse" in my own research, but actually it's impossible even to target with my mouse in this state. The problem happens all the time when i'm driving.
