    Hi all

    i was wondering if anyone had gotten a gamepad working in Linpus Lite at all? i can't seem to find anybody that has managed this (or managed it and put steps up hahaha!).

    what i'm actually using as a gamepad is my cfw psp running fusa gamepad software that converts it cleverly into a gamepad, which of course works fine under windows but not linpus...

    so i don't know if the problem is the weird setup i have or if linpus doesn't natively support gamepad hardware (i have joystick library installed but no help, it sort of sees the pad but nothing really happens)

    ...so it turns out what i *needed* was to install the joydev.ko module as linpus doesn't support it natively? hmmm.

    if anyone has a similar problem like this, get in touch and i may be able to help! i now have my psp pad running as a gamepad (thanks to fusa gamepad for cfw psp) running under linpus.

    now if i could only keep mupen from crashing... oh dear.
