Jitter/mouse problem , but only one direction

Post by Tesla »

Hi,

i succesfully setup gmix on a raspi 2 (GPIO as UART) + arduino micro with a PS4 and 2400DPI mouse but still got one problem:

Everything works fine but if i move my mouse to the left i get constant jitter no matter what config i use.
If i look up, down or to the right everything is as smooth as it should be.

Btw. if i turn deadzone ingame and in config to 0 my view drifts straight to the left all time. Tested witht another mouse/usb cables, same behaviour.

I searched the forums but couldnt find anyone having this issue. Any Ideas?

Btw, im playing Apex Legends (FPS) on a PS4 and i cant live with only turning rightways all time :D (reminds me of zoolander).

Thanks for any help :-)

On linux you have to set Mouse Polling Rate, until you do that you will have jittering.

I already got "usbhid.mousepoll=4" in my cmdline.txt :(

edit: tried on 2 and 0. Still jitter if i move the mouse to the left. Still smooth if i move it up/down/right (yes i rebooted the rpi everytime)

Thanks for your help! Turns out it was indeed the mousepoll.
I added usbhid.mousepoll=0 to the second line in my cmdline.txt so the system just ignored it.

Since i put it at the end of the first line just sepreated by a blank space everything works fine.
Great example of the problem sitting right in front of the computer :lol:
