Hello Bill,
I think I managed to find the cause of those buttons loss.
Also now you have only single speed, but to be honest, for me it is not very 
usable; let me know if this is what you had in mind...
Kind regards,

Michal

i was wondering if you can turn the delay for when the mouse starts moving to 
nothing too? mouse override is what np calls it, also it doesn't seem to click 
while paused yet.

Hello Bill,
as for the clicking while paused, it is not hard to do technically, but I have 
to extend the interface for it a little bit (at least it seems that way now) 
and I'm still thinking through how to do it best in order to not mess up the 
interface...

As for the delay, I'm not sure what you mean; mickey works relatively and I'm 
not influencing the mouse/mousepad itself in any way - to be exact, their 
inputs are summed. There is no overriding done anywhere - just another mouse is 
added to the system and the system uses input from all of them simulaneously.

You should not see any delay in the movement - the only thing that could be 
perceived as a delay is the deadzone, but it works spatially, not temporally.
It means that there is a range of movements around the center, that is ignored 
by mickey.

Could you please elaborate a bit more on the delay you are seeing? When do you 
see it and so on...
Kind regards,

Michal

when i move my head it takes a certain amount of movement before moving the 
mouse on screen, is that the dead zone?

Original comment by billstre...@gmail.com on 27 Dec 2012 at 9:30

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Yes, that is exact description of deadzone...

oh ok, i'll tweak that. thanks.

Original comment by billstre...@gmail.com on 28 Dec 2012 at 12:54

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
can you change it back to not having a single speed? I can't use it well 
either, sorry for the extra work.

Hello Bill,
I'm just finishing a new version (if all goes well, it should be ready in the 
evening), that allows both... I had to do the rewrite, to clean and simplify 
the structure and interactions between different parts of the thing to make it 
more maintainable...

Also the gui is reworked and I'd be interested in your opinion - is it logical, 
understandable?

I'll let you know as soon as it is ready.
Kind regards,

Michal

Hello Bill,
here is the new version: 
http://linux-track.googlecode.com/files/linuxtrack130104.zip

Just unpack it to /opt/linuxtrack as before and run /opt/linuxtrack/bin/mickey 
...

Please let me know how does it work (or doesn't work) for you. Also check the 
help, it should contain all the informations needed to get it going.

Kind regards,

Michal

Hello Bill,
I just wanted to ask you - by any chance, did you have time to try it out? Does 
it work? Do you still see any problems?

If you didn't have time, no problem, I can imagine you have other things to 
do...
I'm just curious...
Kind regards,

Michal

i tried the mouse, but my sip/puff don't work, on or paused.

Hello Bill,
I'm sorry I didn't respond earlier, but I had some hardware troubles that I had 
to resolve them to be able to concentrate on the task... I just put the new 
build here: http://linux-track.googlecode.com/files/linuxtrack130128.zip

The sip and puff switch should work now. Please let me know if it works for 
you...
Kind regards,

I'm glad it works...
At the moment I'll have to play with the build system, so I can pump out the 
packages; feel free to report any problems you encounter...
Kind regards,

i wonder if we can make it move faster and slower with the speed of my head. If 
i move it slower the mickey moves slower and the faster i move my head the 
faster the mouse moves. Is there a setting for that?

Original comment by billstre...@gmail.com on 3 Feb 2013 at 2:14

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Hello Bill,
Right now, it works mostly like a trackpoint - instead of pressure, there is a 
displacement from the center position; the farther you move your head from the 
center, the faster the cursor goes in that direction. It is not about a speed 
of the movement, only about the "size" (actualy angle) of the movement 
(rotation).

If you have the "Step Only" checkbox unchecked, you should get the above 
behavior.
If it is checked, it is only sitting still, or running the maximal preset speed.

Could you please elaborate a bit more on the behavior you'd like to see?
Thank you,

Michal

PS. Other than that, did you encounter any problems?

Is there a way to get the mouse to stop when my head stops anywhere or do i 
need the dead zone changed? It seems to slow to a stop not stop instantly.

Original comment by billstre...@gmail.com on 5 Feb 2013 at 9:18

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Hello Bill,
I can think of two different sources of a behaviour you describe - either it is 
the deadzone, or a filtration...
If the movement seems to be like delayed, I'd try to adjust the filter factor 
(in the ltr_gui, tracking pane).
If the cursor randomly moves, when you have the head centred, then the eadzone 
needs adjustment.
If you want to, you can send me the setup using this command: 

tar cfz ~/ltr_setup.tgz ~/.config/linuxtrack
zip ~/ltr_setup.zip ~/ltr_setup.tgz

It will create  a zip file in your home directory that you can attach here...
Using TrackIR5, I think I can simulate the SmartNav relatively well, so I can 
try and see how does it behave.
Kind regards,

Michal

accually i installed linux mint now, i can't get the mickey to start. any ideas?

Original comment by billstre...@gmail.com on 11 Feb 2013 at 12:22

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
i've noticed i have not .linuxtrack folder too

Original comment by billstre...@gmail.com on 11 Feb 2013 at 12:53

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Hello Bill,
without further info, I can't tell, why the mickey doesn't start; to find out, 
try the following comand:

find /opt/linuxtrack -type f -perm /u+x \! -name '*.la' -exec ldd {} \; | grep 
-i "not found"

It will go through the libraries and executables and will print all the 
libraries that are missing... That sould give you info on what to install to 
get it working.

In general, the following things are necessary: qt4, libQxt, libusb-1.0, wine...
The following are recommended, to have everything working: cwiid, OpenCV, 
libv4l...
It is possible, I've forgotten something, so there might be others, but the 
line above will tell you what is missing.

As for the missing .linuxtrack, it is OK, the new version stores things in 
.config/linuxtrack directory in your home dir.

Kind regards,

Michal

PS. May I ask you - before the mint install, did you use the mickey? Did it 
work for you?

It's amazing how well things work with all the dependencies installed, and yes 
mickey worked before mint, now with mint too!

Hello Bill,

mickey is now part of the universal packages available on the project's 
download page.
Just in case, there is a new wiki page, that mentions steps to fix permissions 
on the uinput file - http://code.google.com/p/linux-track/wiki/VirtualMouse

I will close this issue now, feel free to reopen it or open a new one if 
needed...

Kind regards,

Michal
