WOW!!!

I never thought that i would write something that a. people actually searched for, and b. that would show up on a first page search result.

I love this wordpress software.

“install usb joystick in ubuntu” who knew?

I only wrote it at as reference for myself, and possibly if others needed such information they could have it too.

[ UPDATE ]

I have done some more searching on getting the gamepad working with gsnes9x gui mode.

I had to change the /etc/snes9x/snes9x.conf file.

Change the mappings for the JoyDev and you are all set.

Joydev1 = (null)

change it to

Joydev1 = /dev/input/js0 # or what ever your device is.

And you are off to the races.

Have fun gaming.
