If RubyBox can't find /usr/share/dosbox/dosbox.conf, it uses the new one and if you replace the new one with the old one, it should work like the old one. You did update to 0.4.4 btw?
Yes I'm using 0.4.4,...just checked the version.

I'll test that mapper.txt theory in a bit. Here's one thing I found. If I have the /usr/share/dosbox directory and the line in the dosbox.conf file is 'usescancode=false' then the D-pad works, if it is 'usescancode=true' then the D-pad doesn't function properly,....just like javispedro surmised. Without the /usr/share/dosbox directory, I've got the configuration file in /home/usr/apps set with 'usescancode=false' and the D-pad doesn't function. So I'm guessing Rubybox is finding some other configuration file that has that parameter set to true.

I've got some grass mowing to do,...so more testing later.
