Joystick Connection

Post by Derek_Stewart »

Hi,

I havd connected a Xbox 360 wiress controller via a USB Wireless Receiver to my Linux PC, which was recognised by the installed drivers.

I have sQLux set with JOY1 = 1 in the config file, which maps the Joystick to CTL1 emulated port.. So the Xbox controller is mapped to the cursor keys for up,dow,left,right and space for fire.

All works very nicely.

I noticed that Qemulator, has a joystick option, does anyone know how install a joystick in Linux?


Regards,

Derek
