That is, I have a PS2 and want to be able to control it via my laptop. This would amount to connecting a USB cable between my PS2 and my laptop, and getting the PS2 to detect it as a joystick with the right identifier string, and being able to send button presses etc via my laptop to the PS2. Does anybody have any starting points as to how I can achieve this? Regards, Sebastiaan P.S.: For those of you who must know, I want to interface my electronic drum module (Roland TD-9KS) with the Rockband game. The idea is to use a cheap midi card and convert the incoming notes into joystick button presses.... :) --------------ms000003030608090803090806 Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature; name="smime.p7s" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="smime.p7s" Content-Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature MIAGCSqGSIb3DQEHAqCAMIACAQExCzAJBgUrDgMCGgUAMIAGCSqGSIb3DQEHAQAAoIIJUTCC AwMwggJsoAMCAQICEFN8DarMNuuKJDEtfs0UaqUwDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEFBQAwYjELMAkGA1UE BhMCWkExJTAjBgNVBAoTHFRoYXd0ZSBDb25zdWx0aW5nIChQdHkpIEx0ZC4xLDAqBgNVBAMT I1RoYXd0ZSBQZXJzb25hbCBGcmVlbWFpbCBJc3N1aW5nIENBMB4XDTA4MDYzMDEzNTE1N1oX DTA5MDYzMDEzNTE1N1owaDEQMA4GA1UEBBMHdmFuIEVyazETMBEGA1UEKhMKU2ViYXN0aWFh bjEbMBkGA1UEAxMSU2ViYXN0aWFhbiB2YW4gRXJrMSIwIAYJKoZIhvcNAQkBFhNzZWJzdGVy QHNlYnN0ZXIuY29tMIIBIjANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAAOCAQ8AMIIBCgKCAQEAsJDDAeYHVmH/ GVxi+bhFx27dmg++9BdhPJfk8k041sqEqq7oXnR2GT54quY3Ac7A1BuOM2JvoICraGmjud4y b3EanRnqGIK6iH+VAhhTlV/Owrb2Qm1e13DLxwLp1SocSQl4IrEbF9Y5H3ASdIrE0iFqkpju nPiiHeNhz3LaI5ipjiluKYoH+F6gPx8njHoaDxPePCkSLg4r0IA0afLM74LVZxCRBZEfyRZS J6VVUJefKlz91dWSzR/3xSw/rO4u9Ds/Zh7VBUKy3K+YFryHxRpUek0gSepE1b70Q39L9Sqd M/NZqMvFpwrqgW2Zh2Nh8nqRge90maR4ypBzz3GzLwIDAQABozAwLjAeBgNVHREEFzAVgRNz ZWJzdGVyQHNlYnN0ZXIuY29tMAwGA1UdEwEB/wQCMAAwDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEFBQADgYEAS1Sk NMgDVzb0ktO9tPPacV0KdKhTYOHcICVmuDEe2sFHOkjLAI1iAKp640pqJEVqvRnfRcCFJ9hK koPjjVZ+ui2rVmJWBG6FSloLRS/YYED4tUAw6DQhK61UOpjkpQxjCdm+5bHG/2ZgJAda1j0x uiN822+xFkcaW/5PQgxSRxcwggMDMIICbKADAgECAhBTfA2qzDbriiQxLX7NFGqlMA0GCSqG SIb3DQEBBQUAMGIxCzAJBgNVBAYTAlpBMSUwIwYDVQQKExxUaGF3dGUgQ29uc3VsdGluZyAo UHR5KSBMdGQuMSwwKgYDVQQDEyNUaGF3dGUgUGVyc29uYWwgRnJlZW1haWwgSXNzdWluZyBD QTAeFw0wODA2MzAxMzUxNTdaFw0wOTA2MzAxMzUxNTdaMGgxEDAOBgNVBAQTB3ZhbiBFcmsx EzARBgNVBCoTClNlYmFzdGlhYW4xGzAZBgNVBAMTElNlYmFzdGlhYW4gdmFuIEVyazEiMCAG CSqGSIb3DQEJARYTc2Vic3RlckBzZWJzdGVyLmNvbTCCASIwDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEBBQADggEP ADCCAQoCggEBALCQwwHmB1Zh/xlcYvm4Rcdu3ZoPvvQXYTyX5PJNONbKhKqu6F50dhk+eKrm NwHOwNQbjjNib6CAq2hpo7neMm9xGp0Z6hiCuoh/lQIYU5VfzsK29kJtXtdwy8cC6dUqHEkJ eCKxGxfWOR9wEnSKxNIhapKY7pz4oh3jYc9y2iOYqY4pbimKB/heoD8fJ4x6Gg8T3jwpEi4O K9CANGnyzO+C1WcQkQWRH8kWUielVVCXnypc/dXVks0f98UsP6zuLvQ7P2Ye1QVCstyvmBa8 h8UaVHpNIEnqRNW+9EN/S/UqnTPzWajLxacK6oFtmYdjYfJ6kYHvdJmkeMqQc89xsy8CAwEA AaMwMC4wHgYDVR0RBBcwFYETc2Vic3RlckBzZWJzdGVyLmNvbTAMBgNVHRMBAf8EAjAAMA0G CSqGSIb3DQEBBQUAA4GBAEtUpDTIA1c29JLTvbTz2nFdCnSoU2Dh3CAlZrgxHtrBRzpIywCN YgCqeuNKaiRFar0Z30XAhSfYSpKD441Wfrotq1ZiVgRuhUpaC0Uv2GBA+LVAMOg0ISutVDqY 5KUMYwnZvuWxxv9mYCQHWtY9MbojfNtvsRZHGlv+T0IMUkcXMIIDPzCCAqigAwIBAgIBDTAN BgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADCB0TELMAkGA1UEBhMCWkExFTATBgNVBAgTDFdlc3Rlcm4gQ2FwZTES MBAGA1UEBxMJQ2FwZSBUb3duMRowGAYDVQQKExFUaGF3dGUgQ29uc3VsdGluZzEoMCYGA1UE CxMfQ2VydGlmaWNhdGlvbiBTZXJ2aWNlcyBEaXZpc2lvbjEkMCIGA1UEAxMbVGhhd3RlIFBl cnNvbmFsIEZyZWVtYWlsIENBMSswKQYJKoZIhvcNAQkBFhxwZXJzb25hbC1mcmVlbWFpbEB0 aGF3dGUuY29tMB4XDTAzMDcxNzAwMDAwMFoXDTEzMDcxNjIzNTk1OVowYjELMAkGA1UEBhMC WkExJTAjBgNVBAoTHFRoYXd0ZSBDb25zdWx0aW5nIChQdHkpIEx0ZC4xLDAqBgNVBAMTI1Ro YXd0ZSBQZXJzb25hbCBGcmVlbWFpbCBJc3N1aW5nIENBMIGfMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUAA4GN ADCBiQKBgQDEpjxVc1X7TrnKmVoeaMB1BHCd3+n/ox7svc31W/Iadr1/DDph8r9RzgHU5VAK MNcCY1osiRVwjt3J8CuFWqo/cVbLrzwLB+fxH5E2JCoTzyvV84J3PQO+K/67GD4Hv0CAAmTX p6a7n2XRxSpUhQ9IBH+nttE8YQRAHmQZcmC3+wIDAQABo4GUMIGRMBIGA1UdEwEB/wQIMAYB Af8CAQAwQwYDVR0fBDwwOjA4oDagNIYyaHR0cDovL2NybC50aGF3dGUuY29tL1RoYXd0ZVBl cnNvbmFsRnJlZW1haWxDQS5jcmwwCwYDVR0PBAQDAgEGMCkGA1UdEQQiMCCkHjAcMRowGAYD VQQDExFQcml2YXRlTGFiZWwyLTEzODANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFAAOBgQBIjNFQg+oLLswNo2as Zw9/r6y+whehQ5aUnX9MIbj4Nh+qLZ82L8D0HFAgk3A8/a3hYWLD2ToZfoSxmRsAxRoLgnSe JVCUYsfbJ3FXJY3dqZw5jowgT2Vfldr394fWxghOrvbqNOUQGls1TXfjViF4gtwhGTXeJLHT HUb/XV9lTzGCA3EwggNtAgEBMHYwYjELMAkGA1UEBhMCWkExJTAjBgNVBAoTHFRoYXd0ZSBD b25zdWx0aW5nIChQdHkpIEx0ZC4xLDAqBgNVBAMTI1RoYXd0ZSBQZXJzb25hbCBGcmVlbWFp bCBJc3N1aW5nIENBAhBTfA2qzDbriiQxLX7NFGqlMAkGBSsOAwIaBQCgggHQMBgGCSqGSIb3 DQEJAzELBgkqhkiG9w0BBwEwHAYJKoZIhvcNAQkFMQ8XDTA5MDUyMjE0NTk0OVowIwYJKoZI hvcNAQkEMRYEFGNtCRMhRBsOA3vZ5C/GTtpBUrtXMF8GCSqGSIb3DQEJDzFSMFAwCwYJYIZI AWUDBAECMAoGCCqGSIb3DQMHMA4GCCqGSIb3DQMCAgIAgDANBggqhkiG9w0DAgIBQDAHBgUr DgMCBzANBggqhkiG9w0DAgIBKDCBhQYJKwYBBAGCNxAEMXgwdjBiMQswCQYDVQQGEwJaQTEl MCMGA1UEChMcVGhhd3RlIENvbnN1bHRpbmcgKFB0eSkgTHRkLjEsMCoGA1UEAxMjVGhhd3Rl IFBlcnNvbmFsIEZyZWVtYWlsIElzc3VpbmcgQ0ECEFN8DarMNuuKJDEtfs0UaqUwgYcGCyqG SIb3DQEJEAILMXigdjBiMQswCQYDVQQGEwJaQTElMCMGA1UEChMcVGhhd3RlIENvbnN1bHRp bmcgKFB0eSkgTHRkLjEsMCoGA1UEAxMjVGhhd3RlIFBlcnNvbmFsIEZyZWVtYWlsIElzc3Vp bmcgQ0ECEFN8DarMNuuKJDEtfs0UaqUwDQYJKoZIhvcNAQEBBQAEggEAWS+2GmkD8ckC4YSE lDiHPRfkUPRhmUlFqvxzmKMqVdzqj4cakoDcGpuaVt5sdr8VqA2qTL5f9H+7p+vWpPkNcA7J 7JM2hdVhsJS/JihkdoOFrC4YHfrOSy7vGTWetYvH0S10H0MHZ31juyi7amOiNYMXNANpAOTH Jn99KSpxw0f5/y78LmHPSItOpLI5HoLF489BBzoGgmk45GefuBb+7fR6Qt0wMEPK2thA+LI4 +e4OWPC3VhWMeUfhhSbSU7IlilClLMZaGzm4q+QcQPtmV1e8/X1pV/A7I8u52Z0eh8OMXeum r4wYA+JhiH73kkdxdvzbTJeCctRe0c9anqeIpAAAAAAAAA== --------------ms000003030608090803090806--
