Here's a working sample of the .joy2keyrc file for use with the xpad driver.
It's set up to provide the main directional control buttons and is very
simple -  I had intention of evolving this but my myth project has been put
on hold for a while. If you extend it to include a bunch of the other myth
hotkeys it'd be great if you'd share your config.

Refer to this site http://interreality.org/~tetron/technology/joy2key/ for a
download and install instructions, but this is what I use to run myth with
joy2key enabled.

-------------------------------------------------
./joy2key -dev /dev/js1 -config mythfrontend &
mythfrontend

Good luck :-)
