[SOLVED]how to define a keyset in vice

Madi · 2007-08-15 19:00:46

hello.
can anybody tell me how i can define my own keyset for the joystick-emulation in vice? I got no answer from the viceteam to my email... I know in winvice there it's easy: you just chose "define keyset a or b" from menu or something like this... but in vice on my arch? don't have this menu-point, only predefined keysets e.g. numpad for directons and "0" is fire... I like those old commodore c64 games - it would be more easy to play with the arrow-keys... tried to find a file to edit - didn't find one...
or am I too stupid to find the right point in the menus? i tried to find out by google and of course by searching this and other forums - no sucess :-(
Ah, more or less I'm still a newbie to linux but with the help of the great archlinux-community and this forum I was able to make all things work i wanted to... thanks a lot!

hi
i see it isn't that interesting... i thought because of vice being available in the extra repository someone uses it...

I use vice a lot, mainly for playing archon and watching demos.

I would suggest to build vice with the gnome ui, maybe then the options for defining keysets are available. At least the windows version has this built-in...

hi

installed vice from repo, didn't try build... but no option to define keyset in kde, xfce4 or gnome... is there no file of vice to edit...?

To enable the Gnome/GTK UI you have to recompile vice with the --enable-gnome-ui (if i remember it correctly) option...

It's --enable-gnomeui, and I can confirm that definable keysets are available with it.

YES! That was ist! I recompiled it (just editing the pkgbuild from cvs; I use now this gnome-ui within xfce4 - works fine)
Thank you for solving this issue for me! Now I can enjoy all these 8bit stuff... great... .-)
