GPL driver problems with Ferrari wheel

by Denn » Wed, 19 Jul 2000 04:00:00

Hi, I'm having lots of problems with my Ferrari wheel in GPL. Often,
the FF will disappear after a few laps and always is the wheel not
centered (I have to turn about 5 degrees right). This is not helping
my laptimes (not to mention my temper). I'm about to hurl my cats :)

Any idea? I'm using the drivers that came with the wheel, as I read
that the new drivers were not good? Oh, and I've patched GPL with
both the OpenGL and Direct3D patch, as well as the 1.2 patch.

Also, any1 using the 5.32 Detonator drivers for a Geforce with GPL
and not getting menu corruption and in-game stuttering? Any1 got
the FSAA to work?

TIA,

Dennis.

So, basically I'm screwed and have to wait for a driver update? Oh, ok,
I was starting to think I couldn't drive straight anymore.

I only have this problem on the rare moment.  I would try uninstalling
the drivers and re-installing them from scratch (use the latest drivers
from their site).  It's not perfect, but it does seem more stable....

The problem does NOT occur when I use the SERIAL PORT instead of USB.
Its a USB problem I think.
