Controller arrived today. Followed your instructions (Link) and it worked perfectly! However, given what you said at the bottom.. should my joysticks be doing something? The left does nothing.. and the right simply emulates Mouse1.

Ran the troubleshooting steps you said.. and all worked fine except for the 4th (the first 4th). Output is below:


I can take from that that something is bad.. but have no idea how to rectify it. Its working perfectly for your PSX emulator and SNES emulator.. I was just really keen for some Open Arena with it

It printed XOrg joystick driver, so you're fine.
I have additional joystick diagnostic tools installed, but you don't need these.

Ok cool. So given that's not the problem... any reason why my left joystick isn't doing anything. My mistake also.. the right stick does appear to scroll in some windows.. just in OA that it seems to simulate Mouse1 when used.

Left emulates mouse. Just launch something that shows mouse cursor - ie. ScummVM.

So it does... in ScummVM and Teaworlds... and everything else... except Open Arena... I wonder why >.< Was totally keen for a rematch with my 3 mates running OA on their N95s and iPhones :P

Will look in to it more and post back here for anyone that cares I guess.

Big thanks to the author of all this stuff. I installed the sixaxis stuff from extras, the enhanced kernel (for the hell of it really) and picodrive. Now I have an awesome portable megadrive emulator with wireless controller. Much kudos to those that made this possible.

(sorry, no help for devildriven, it Just Worked (tm) for me.

You can access files on the PC from Linux. Look under "Computer" icon.
If it's not there, you could use a pen-drive to store sixpair.gz.

(Explaining how to manually access PC drive if it's not there by default is possible, but may be too complicated for a beginner)

Yes. You may need to give a path to sixpair.gz though.
ex.
Code:
gzip -d ~/Desktop/sixpair.gz

Ok I give up. I've tried screwing around with it and it's just made it worse. How can I setup the joysticks to work with emulators and the like by mapping them to keys (or another method)? Eg. up on joystick = w.

It just refuses to work. Are there any custom configs out there that'll work with this (someone posted one in their tutorial a very large number of pages ago.. but he edited it out (and in quotes to it the links are dead).
