The problem appears to be most emulators use joypad or something specific to linux. But there is one in FreeBSD too, I just could never get the button mappings down. What I was going to do was have x treat it like a keyboard or something and map the buttons from my controller to the keyboard keys. I could get my gamepad to do things like change system system settings, but that was all. If you have any thoughts or get it working let me know. Jason
