N900 doesnt support USB OTG. This is a hardware-level limitation.

On the N8x0 there is an app for USB host mode, but it requires a certain type of adapter. Otherwise there was a chap that made an inexpensive USB adapter that automatically switched the N8x0 into host mode so you could utilize a USB controller/keyboard/mouse/whathaveyou. This could also be coupled with a powered USB hub to plug in hard drives.

i was not asking how to switch n8x0 to host mode
i was asking what software to use to get a usb controller working
i mean driver software

Re: retro Nintendo USB controller
 

there is already a topic written about this but
in that topic, link of the code file to get driver work is broken
the code file was called usbgp.c
