Hello Garuda community,
I want to play the game Psychonauts. It runs fine except for one thing: Raz, the controlled game's character, behaves as if I would press constantly up arrow and left arrow keys. This means, it receives input that is actually not provided by my input hardware. I don't have this issue with other programs or games.
If this is not the right forum, please point me out to the right one.
It's a Linux native executable and the issue is independent of a game launcher. I tried to remove all input hardware and removed all mapped keys to the left and up movement but nothing changed. j
How could I procede to check the issue or cause? I wonder, which kind of alternative input sources the game would try to read, besides keys, and falsly interprete. I have special keyboard hardware that came with my tablet-notebook device, which registered a game controller internally /dev/input/js0 instead of a touch pad. Otherwise I only have /dev/input/event{0..17}, /dev/input/mouse{0..4} and /dev/input/mice My keyboard has no numpad keys.
Do you know a site where people share their configuration or help for running games on Linux or Lutris? It took me manual tweaking effort to make it properly usable. I want to save others from the trouble who'd probably even give up and use Windows instead.
Here is my garuda-inxi (I was not playing the game when I run it).
