HID devices include keyboards, gamepads/joysticks, penpads/touchpads, mice... This can be for any type of HID device, from the old architecture, from x86-input, from the newer driver architecture, from Antimicro or Bluetooth. Any HID that runs on FreeBSD.
Even plans on what to do with it. Or...
Bluetooth Human Interface Device peripherals are on BTHIDD architecture, rather than UHID, IICHID or USBHID architectures. BTHIDD is based on libusb, so it doesn't have the range of hardware compatibility that USBHID has. HID-over-I2C was by Microsoft, so wasn't supported by Apple, and it isn't...
I used this term in helping a user and they had no idea of what a paddle card is.
Do you know?
I loosely consider any ISA/PCI/PCIe converter/adapter card a paddle card.
Usually they are dumb and have little electronics. Just a form-factor converter.
For instance M.2 NGFF NVMe device to PCIe bus...
Hi, I've been trying to get my wired PlayStation 4 controller to work on FreeBSD and followed the instructions in this thread. I'm not 100% sure if I needed to do anything but load the ps4dshock module because the issue was not resolved by just following these steps. However, I do know that the...
I have recently started exploring the possibilities of BSD. I am having trouble getting a eGalax touch screen to work. I have exhausted all google searches and now reaching out to the BSD community for help finding a solution. I am running a basic X-Server and have the initial touch event...
Hello FreeBSD community. Finally! )
I'm sorry for my English, I have not much practice.
First of all, what I have: laptop with RTX2060, i7, nvme, uefi.
What I know in linux: debian -> slackware -> arch.
We scared by videos on YouTube about FreeBSD. They say there are many really simple...
Enabling usbhid
usbhid gives the ability to use newer advanced hid drivers. The ability to use usbhid must be turned on from /boot/loader.conf:
hw.usb.usbhid.enable="1"
Then, load the driver through /etc/rc.conf:
kld_list="usbhid"
Turning this module on from /boot/loader.conf won't work. Once...
Hello all. I'm on a relatively fresh installation of FreeBSD 13.0 which, to my knowledge, supports PS4 controllers. I've tested Citra and everything works perfectly as far as 3DS emulation is concerned. PSP emulation is a completely different story however. PPSSPP recognises the analogue stick...
What is the best option for gameport on a FreeBSD system?
The two ways to go that I can see are either an old PCI sound card with gameport, or a USB-gameport converter.
I also have a PCI bracket with a gameport on it, that is on a cable that goes to a 16-pin header, but my motherboard does not...
Hello :
I am trying to configure a bluetooth gamepad on FreeBSD 13.0, specifically an 8Bitdo SF30, basically a clone of the classic SNES controller. I have not found any information regarding this gamepad in this forum.
I have configured , hcsecd and bthidd successfully, actually the...
Hey Guys!
I created Live CD Images that can be written to a >= 5GB USB stick and be booted from on almost any 64-bit Intel based computer. It supports both Legacy BIOS boot for older machines and UEFI boot for newer machines. It contains FreeBSD 13.0-RELEASE along with Xorg-minimal. When it is...
Hello everyone,
I am fairly new to FreeBSD and I use it successfully as my OS of choice for the small VPS project I have.
Since I want to get away from Windows in my home in the near future, I am currently testing the viability of FreeBSD as my Desktop OS as well.
At the moment I have it on my...
So I added some throttle/joystick to my PC for some Win10 games. I do have dual boot FreeBSD which boots from nVME and works fine (upon boot i can select either win10 drive or BSD drive).
But I noticed that after joystick installation, the FreeBSD freezes at ACPI APIC < > boot line.
removing...
I would like to connect a DualShock 4 (and PS5 controller later on) with FreeBSD and my integrated (USB) Bluetooth 2.1 or 4.0 chip.
With the DualShock 4 connected via USB, controllermap successfully detects both the controller and every single controller button / analog stick.
Now I used...
Someone asked, and I'll post this here...
I've never gotten it to work. I've only gotten remote devices (as in apart from the dongle) to show up, but they didn't show up as Bluetooth devices. I don't remember the output status of my Bluetooth dongle (it was either version 3 or 4).
Avoid...
Hi everyone, I have installed retroarch via ports and am trying to use both my DS4 and F310. I have noticed, recently, that my F310 will not work out of the box anywhere and is incorrectly mapped, so antimicro is not even an option.
With my DS4, I have luck using mednafen and mupen64plus...
Dear FreeBSD users,
after a long series of trials, I'm stuck with this brand new Wacom tablet.
This is my configuration:

I'm excited about the kernel evdev support in FreeBSD and the prospect of having a more plug'n'play experience with peripherals like USB input devices. But things aren't working as expected.
I have tried two laptops where the touchpad works to move the mouse cursor, and the buttons for the pad...
Hi,
what is the recommended way to set-up a USB gamepad with FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE and SDL 2.0?
$ usbconfig ugen0.3
ugen0.3: <vendor 0x0810 USB Gamepad> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=LOW (1.5Mbps) pwr=ON (350mA)
The gamepad is recognised by SDL’s...
