<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I have a USB Logitech Wingman Rumblepad and
a USB Microsoft Sidewinder Pro. When I use the Microsoft one with zSNES
it's always detected the same. What I mean by that is, when you run zsnes
with a joystick plugged in it spits out a line that says how many axis, buttons,
hats, and balls it has. I can see the zsnes output when I run it
from mythfrontend in the mythfrontend log file. When I run zSNES
from a command prompt with my Rumblepad plugged in it gives me
this:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>---- zSNES executed from the command prompt

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Notice the weirdness? It totally
changed all the device controls! When I try to set up my rumblepad from a
command prompt, and then use it in mythgame it doesn't work correctly. I
think it's due to this but I don't know how to fix it. I used all the same
switches in my command prompt run so it should be similar. I thought maybe
it was joystick navigation in myth conflicting with mythgame so I tried
recompiling with the --disable-joystick-menu but it didn't help. Could
mythfrontend/mythgame be affecting how the joystick is detected in
zSNES??</FONT></DIV>
