This doesn't install a custom kernel, just a kernel module. While the chances of something bad happening aren't zero, i think you'd have to try really hard to brick an N900 by installing a tested, packaged kernel module.

Thanks for trying.

Did you enable joystick in the prboom menu?

Options->General->Next->Enable Joystick

I'm especially interested in feedback from people who have played a lot of accelerometer-controlled games (say, on the iPhone...) and therefore have a good idea what is possible and insight into what could be improved for the control itself.

AWESOME! it works very flawless! one option to add would be to shake the phone for making a jump, like in openarena.

I also couldnt find the shoot button, does it change when applying joystick??

thanks for your work, this is bomb!


EDIT: ok shoot button found, its getting pretty late gorgeous

Yes, i was going to ask if you had installed one of the hacks going around. The joydev kernel module is available as a package now, so hopefully there won't be too many taking the hard route to installing it.

Well good, it seems this install works for stock N900s.

Glad to hear it. There is actually no jumping in Doom. I do plan on making gestures mappable, though. Unfortunately i have more plans than time.

Nope. I hope to eventually make the camera button an optional joystick button.
