Can't find package 'jscalibrator'

[afroman10496]

I'm using the 9.10 RC and I'm trying to install jscalibrator. But, now, when I type in

sudo apt-get install jscalibrator

is gives me

$ sudo apt-get install jscalibrator
Reading package lists... Done

E: Couldn't find package jscalibrator

even when I enable the 'karmic partner' software source. Help!

I guess the package was dropped for karmic because of this bug:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...sw/+bug/416628

[spezticle]

so use an different program? any suggestions?
or install jscalibrator, despite it's removal from the lastest ubuntu distro?

[scared0o0rabbit]

Bump. I'd really like to know what to do as well. Any suggestions?

is there another way to use a gamepad as my primary controller for mythtv?

I noticed it's quite an old thread. However, you can install jscalibrator from Jaunty's repos. The only thing is there are quite a few packages that need to be installed.
Another thing that you can try is to install "joystick" which includes "some useful tools for using joysticks".

search jscalibrator on google with ubuntu (this works with 64 bit) or go on this link http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/jscalibrator go to the bottom of the page click i386 im not sure if this is the british one but click on this gr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu

download then install using debian when doing so errors will come up but do the same with the missing error codes just search them then find them on packages.ubuntu.com

probably a dead post but, these don't work either. any help with a joystick calibrator?

[ebs16]

Should be in the repos. Whats your specific problem?

I am trying with great difficulty getting my logitech rumblepad 2 to work, and think I need a gui to map the inputs. I have tried joystick and:

jscal -c /dev/input/js0

but don't understand the the cli axes numbers. I would really like a GUI that tells me what my buttons are when I push them and then allows me to map it to a keyboard input (that my IL-2 game is associated with).

Arghhh, there must be a GUI, and jscalibrator is impossible to install (tried to add jaunties repo too - no lock),

Please ... help
