GIXM and DIY USB on Raspberry @ PS4 stops after a while

Post by user888 »

Hi,

I'm using this setup:
  • Raspberry Pi 2
  • DIY adapter (with CP2102 loaded with EMUG29PS4)
  • DS4 ----(cable)----> Raspi
  • PS4-----(cable)----> DIY ----(cable)----> Raspi
  • Red Momo Force or Driving Force GT ----(cable)----> Raspi
  • Project Cars on PS4
With the Driving Force GT I could play only a few minutes (10 minutes most) before the controller stopped responding. Mostly resulting in not able to steer, and in the game the car's throttle being fully depressed. Game then doesn't respond to any inputs anymore. Replugging devices didn't help. Only solution was to reboot Raspberry Pi.
With the Red Momo Force I now have played for days (with sessions up to an hour or so) without problems. Until yesterday. It now exhibits the same problem as above. Have not made any changes in the setup (save powersupply for the raspi, I did however changed the DS4 config L2 and R2 were mapped incorrectly). Tried different powersupplies, used an Raspi 1 with separate (and powered) USB hub to no avail.

Earlier I saw some kind of USB_OPEN_SOMETHING (or was it USB_CREATE something) errors in the logging, will post them later but cannot see them now as I auto-start GIMX and the logging is not visible.

Any suggestions so far?

Hi,
I moved the topic to the discussion section.
Please generate a log file showing the failure:
  • create the ~/.gimx/log directory
  • add --log log.txt to the gimx command line
Don't forget to remove the --log argument once you got the right log file.

I will do that tonight. I do have some additional info.

I see lot's of LIBUSB_TRANSFER_TIMED_OUT messages. The Raspberry Pi's screen went black and could not get it to show unless I unplug the DIY USB adapter. The last statement on the screen is: src/linux/async.c:266 write failed with error: input/output error

Hy guys.

I'm getting the same error as described by User888 with the same wheel. The only different thing is that I'm using Teensy++ 2.0.
Hey Matlo. Where did you move this post?

I have the log files for this error.

Thanks. See ya.

@mrramires
It doesn't look the same issue to me.
You can find your own post cliking on "User control panel", and then "Show your posts".

Same problem here. Sometimes it Works for a few minutes and sometimes only few seconds.

The Wheel deads, no FFB at all, the Wheel's led keeps blinking, PS4 doesn't receive any command and an error about LIBUSB_OUTPUT_TIMET_OUT is showed at gimx's log file.

I've changed Pi's charger, 2.0A and 2.1A, and some USB cables.

My config is RPi 3, G27, CP2102+Arduino Leonardo.

I'll post tomorrow the complete log, some idea?

Thanks in advance

Here is the log generated

EDIT: I tried one more thing, I did sudo raspi-update and now GIMX doesm't work at all. It starts without an error but when I press left red button on Wheel nothing happens.
