Ubuntu 14 LTS, G27 disconnects occasionally

Post by yamiro »

Hello and thanks in advance for your (or our) time.
My setup basically works, but using my G27 on Project Cars on a PS4, I cannot steer after a few minutes, I even can't press the PS Button on the DS4.
I have to disconnect the cable to the DS4, gimx terminates on my shell, I have to reconnect the cable and restart GIMX.
There is no useful log. Is there an option to be more verbose?

Code: Select all

[~]$ gimx --config LogitechG27_G29.xml --port /dev/ttyUSB0 --log gimx.log
option -c with value `LogitechG27_G29.xml'
option -p with value `/dev/ttyUSB0'
Here my log, you can see, that I disconnected the DS4, but there is no log about the freeze :(

Code: Select all

[~/.gimx/log]$ tail -f gimx.log
option -l with value `gimx.log'
native mode is already enabled for HID device 02:02 (PID=c29b)
Detected USB adapter: G29 PS4.
using default refresh period: 5.00ms



libusb_transfer failed with status LIBUSB_TRANSFER_NO_DEVICE (endpoint=0x84)
tail: gimx.log: file truncated

This could be due to a bad USB cable, or a faulty contact between the boards.
Could you add the --status argument to your command, and see if GIMX still reacts to controls when the issue happens?

Thank you for you answer. The problem did not occur for 2 hours. I'll have an eye on that and will alway start using --status.
