Thanks everyone, I've got the joystick working according to jstest, and
there already is a link /dev/js0 to /dev/input/js0. However, xmame can't
find the joystick. There are a few different command line options that I
have tried, but I'm not sure which joytype applies to me (tried them
all):
*** Input Related ***
-joytype / -jt <int> Select type of joystick support to use:
0 No joystick
1 i386 style joystick driver (if compiled
in)
2 Fm Town Pad support (if compiled in)
3 X11 input extension joystick (if
compiled in)
4 new i386 linux 1.x.x joystick driver(if
compiled in)
5 NetBSD USB joystick driver (if compiled
in)
6 PS2-Linux native pad (if compiled in)
7 SDL joystick driver
-[no]analogstick / -[no]as Use Joystick as analog for analog
controls
-joydevname / -jdev <string> Joystick device prefix (defaults to
/dev/js)
-[no]mouse / -[no]m Enable/disable mouse (if supported)
-[no]hotrod / -[no]hr Enable HotRod joystick support
-[no]hotrodse / -[no]hrse Select HotRod SE joystick support
-[no]usbpspad / -[no]pspad The Joystick(s) are USB PS Game Pads
-[no]rapidfire / -[no]rapidf Enable rapid-fire support for joysticks
But I always get:
I386 joystick interface initialization...
OSD: Warning: No joysticks found disabling joystick support
or
OSD: Warning: unknown joytype: 3, or joytype not compiled in.
Disabling joystick support.
This has gone beyond just wanting to play some old arcade games... now I
can't let it defeat me, it's a matter of principle!
