javispedro and izzeho and whoever programmed the plugin,
thank you!
Is the GUI mapping isn't practical (the accelerometer in the PS3 messes things up), edit it manually in xterm. With leafpad installed in a fresh xterm:
Code:
leafpad .mupen64plus/blight_input.conf
Open another terminal window and run:
Code:
root     (need rootsh installed)
apt-get install joystick
jstest /dev/js0
This will output a cool little display of what joystick is currently active, along with what buttons are currently pressed. Simply press a desired button and see which number becomes On.

Go to the blight_input.conf we opened in leafpad. And for the corresponding key you want it to mapped to, change button( 0 ) to the number you found from jstest. Rinse and repeat till you are done. Obviously the template is a little different for axis'... but just follow the template and you can't go wrong.

As is, I've no idea how to get passed the annoying issue of the accelerometer in the PS3 controller becoming the keymap for whatever you are trying to change.
