Rumble motor sometimes gets stuck on

Issues 2502 Pixie

While playing PS1 games with PCSX-ReARMed, I’ve occasionally had the rumble motor get stuck on. Even exiting from RetroArch back to the muOS menu doesn’t stop it - the only fix seems to be a full reboot.

I guess this is probably a PCSX-ReARMed and/or RetroArch bug that I should report to those projects? Thought I’d start here first though, just in case it relates to muOS.

I was also wondering if there’s some way muOS could mitigate the problem, e.g. by sending a “turn off” command to the motor when content is quit. Totally understand it if we don’t want to add hacks to muOS to work around buggy emulators though!

EDIT: Device is a 40XXV, in case it’s relevant. And I’m on Pixie patch 2.

EDIT 2: Also noting that I think I’ve only seen it happen with the Future Cop LAPD game. So maybe only certain games are triggering a PCSX bug.

Yes, good idea! We can probably do that if we haven’t done so already with our launch script.
