Vista 无法设置游戏控制器

症状:
系统Vista,几周前DMC4还玩得好好的,这几天突然发现不行了。不论是dx9还是dx10的,就一直黑屏。DMC4Launcher可以进入,但是一设置手柄就卡死。

分析:
起初认为是显卡驱动的问题,更新后无果。 后来想起了dxdiag,载入后发现每次到input那个tab就会卡死(好像中间有几次成功了),于是认为是手柄问题,但是在别的游戏(如smynes)中就工作正常。 后来进入控制面板设置游戏控制器,没有反应。

用VS调试DMC4Launcher以及主程序,前者断在dinput8.dll的一个类似EnumDevices的函数里,后者则是一个奇怪的死循环。后来又调式了游戏控制器选项的rundll32.exe, 跟DMC4Launcher情况一样。

于是去Device Manager,到Human Interfaces Devices中逐个删除,发现一个比较奇怪的设备 Root Enumerated Hid Device。删除之后需要重启,而后竟工作正常了。

想想这几天,更新过Tooya Pro绘图板的驱动,于是打开Painter一看,果然绘图板的压感没了。重装驱动后那个Root Enumerated Hid Device再度出现,而DMC4也随之再次不能进入了。

结论:
Tooya Pro的驱动会导致冲突,影响游戏控制器及有关程序(可能主要是dinput8.dll里的那个函数)。不知道哪里的bug,完全google不到。

临时解决办法就是禁掉Root Enumerated Hid Device,仅当需要用绘图板时才启用。不过老得重启还是很麻烦的。

Determine Perspective Lines With Off-page Vanishing Point

In perspective drawing, a vanishing point represents a group of parallel lines, in other words, a direction. For any point on the paper, if we want a line towards the same direction (in the 3d space), we simply draw a line through it and the vanishing point. But sometimes the vanishing point is too far away, such that it is outside the paper/canvas. In this example, we have a point P and two perspective lines L1 and L2. The vanishing point VP is naturally the intersection of L1 and L2. The task is to draw a line through P and VP, without having VP on the paper. I am aware of a few traditional solutions: 1. Use extra pieces of paper such that we can extend L1 and L2 until we see VP. 2. Draw everything in a smaller scale, such that we can see both P and VP on the paper. Draw the line and scale everything back. 3. Draw a perspective grid using the Brewer Method. #1 and #2 might be quite practical. #3 may not guarantee a solution, unless we can measure distances/p...

Qubes OS: First Impressions

A few days ago, while browsing security topics online, Qubes OS surfaced—whether via YouTube recommendations or search results, I can't recall precisely. Intrigued by its unique approach to security through compartmentalization, I delved into the documentation and watched some demos. My interest was piqued enough that I felt compelled to install it and give it a try firsthand. My overall first impression of Qubes OS is highly positive. Had I discovered it earlier, I might have reconsidered starting my hardware password manager project. Conceptually, Qubes OS is not much different from running a bunch of virtual machines simultaneously. However, its brilliance lies in the seamless desktop integration and the well-designed template system, making it far more user-friendly than a manual VM setup. I was particularly impressed by the concept of disposable VMs for temporary tasks and the clear separation of critical functions like networking (sys-net) and USB handling (sys-usb) into the...

Exploring Immutable Distros and Declarative Management

My current server setup, based on Debian Stable and Docker, has served me reliably for years. It's stable, familiar, and gets the job done. However, an intriguing article I revisited recently about Fedora CoreOS, rpm-ostree, and OSTree native containers sparked my curiosity and sent me down a rabbit hole exploring alternative approaches to system management. Could there be a better way? Core Goals & Requirements Before diving into new technologies, I wanted to define what "better" means for my use case: The base operating system must update automatically and reliably. Hosted services (applications) should be updatable either automatically or manually, depending on the service. Configuration and data files need to be easy to modify, and crucially, automatically tracked and backed up. Current Setup: Debian Stable + Docker My current infrastructure consists of several servers, all running Debian Stable. System Updates are andled automatically via unattended-upgrades. Se...
