I was directed to this support application for force feedback devices after hooking up a Logitech Wingman Force usb/serial joystick. Everything checked out and appears to be on-line but I am getting inconsistent results.
I have only had the rumble test work and supply a rumble effect using the --test switch.It only works intermittently 1 out of several test attempts and usually only once if at all in any given test session. I don't think I have yet to feel the force feedback test on the stick , only rumble.
This is the terminal response during the test.

I thought maybe it was a permission issue but no longer think that is the case. Anyone have any idea what might be going on and how to fix or even debug this?
I think this application is a good start to the whole force feedback application to FG.
