Cant assign game pad controls
« on: March 11, 2010, 02:12:39 PM »
Im using ubuntu 10.04
Every other game/program works fine with it,
It even show up under "lsusb"

But when I try to reassign the keys, it wont let me. It just as if i am not even pressing a button on the gamepad.

Thanks

Check the "use joystick" checkbox is on in setup->controls.

Thanks for the fast reply. But I have already tried that.
Any other thoughts?

I don't know if joystick support works in Linux.  You might have to use Wine with the Windows version.

Alright, I just tried that. And it works... kinda.
It will work for normal buttons, or a dpad. But im guessing it will not recognize pressure sensitive controls?

thanks
