Hey there, i upgraded to the new version.

But it seems i am missing somethign about the GUNCON.

If i understand properly, we can now use the gun controller, so fire by touching the screen? If yes, that's really great.

Back to my problem, i try a a game i used to play with gun controller: Die Hard Trilogy.
My problem is that when i select the GUNCON in pcsx settings, i can't do any actions, no move no start, no select no nothing.

So i followed your advice about chmod the event3 file.
But this did not resolve the problem.
Even 777 does not work... i don't understand what i am missing there. Something to configure?

Also, if i chmod the file, start the emulator and (try to) play, the event 3 file go back to its previous scurity attributes after i close the emulator.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Also can you tell me from which game you took the screenshot in your comment about GUNCON working with some tweaks above?

Best regards

EDIT: Just to tell that i tried to chmod as root or as user with the sudo chmod command

Yes.

Back to my problem, i try a a game i used to play with gun controller: Die Hard Trilogy.
Wikipedia lists "Die Hard Trilogy 2: Viva Las Vegas" as compatible with the guncon:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GunCon#...mpatible_games

Also, if i chmod the file, start the emulator and (try to) play, the event 3 file go back to its previous scurity attributes after i close the emulator.
It's normal: the gui changes the permission on the file and reset to the "default" on emulator exit (so if it works on exit you don't need to change any permisison manually).
Also: if you run the gui from terminal and the touchscreen is correctly initialized you'll see in the output a message like:
Code:
Touchscreen configured, device=/dev/input/ts
...
Controller set to GUNCON (SLPH-00034)
Also can you tell me from which game you took the screenshot in your comment about GUNCON working with some tweaks above?
Time Crisis (no tweaks needed, just configure the game to use the guncon and start it from the the gui)

EDIT: It seems that "Die Hard Trilogy" is not compatible with the guncon but with the "Konami Justifier" (unsupported by pcsxrearmed)

Sakya Guncon games were crashing when I tried to start them so I tried running from terminal to see the output.

Code:
~ $ psx4m-gui
Reading roms from "/home/user/MyDocs/psx/" 
  Rom: "Crash Team Racing [SCUS-94426].bin" 
  Rom: "mtgp.bin" 
  Rom: "Pandemonium! 2 [U] [SLUS-00578].img" 
  Rom: "Pandemonium.bin" 
  Rom: "Point Blank.bin" 
  Rom: "pr-lssc1.bin" 
  Rom: "pr-lssc2.bin" 
  Rom: "Rage Racer.bin" 
  Rom: "RayCrisis [SLUS-01217].bin" 
  Rom: "Ridge Racer.iso" 
  Rom: "SCPH1001.BIN" 
  Rom: "Tomba! [U] [SCUS-94236].img" 
  Rom: "wip3outsp.iso" 
  Rom: "Wipeout XL [U] [SCUS-94351].img" 
Password:
It seems to ask for a password when I try to run a guncon game. if I start the game and just go to terminal and press enter at the password prompt the game runs but the keys won't work. Am I doing something wrong? The game I tried was point blank btw.

Probably it's the command
Code:
sudo chmod 666 /dev/input/event3
that asks for password.

I don't have this problem, but I have rootsh installed, maybe this is the difference?

What happens if you try that command from the terminal?

I installed sudser and that took care of the password problem. Still, can't get the guncon to work on either Time Crisis or Point Blank. I also don't seem to get this message when running the emulator:

Code:
Touchscreen configured, device=/dev/input/ts
...
Controller set to GUNCON (SLPH-00034)

So i did try time crisis as well and got same behaviour, no aciton possible while GUNCON selected in pcsx settings.

Also, as acidpunk said, i got no message about the touchscreen configured properly when running from terminal.

Will continue to try and follow this tread

Then you should have an error message, post the output.
The error message is after the "Loading memory card" message.
Example (permission problem, that should not be your case)
Code:
Loading memory card ./.pcsx/memcards/card1.mcd
Loading memory card ./.pcsx/memcards/card2.mcd
Failed pts_open, check permission on /dev/input/ts
Could not open touchscreen
@Acidspunk: Thanks the package needed to use the guncon is sudser

Ops, sorry my fault the output I posted is the one from the emulator, not the gui (I think I'll modify the gui to output at least the stderr).

Please, run this command in the terminal and post the output:
Code:
/opt/maemo/usr/games/pcsx -nosound -mcd1 /home/user/.pcsx/memcards/card1.mcd -mcd2 /home/user/.pcsx/memcards/card2.mcd -keys /home/user/.config/Team16/keys/keys -guncon -frameskip 0 -spu_interpolation 0 -region -1 -cdfile /media/mmc1/N900GameAndFiles/Emulation/PS1/Time Crisis (E) (Track 01) [SCES-00657].bin
