That's the problem. Some games, like Zsnes, find my joystic in /dev/input/js0, but others like Dosemu try to use /dev/js0 and it doesn't exist.

The line that creates the joystick nodes, in /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules:

Code:

KERNEL="js*", NAME="input/%k"

but we want /dev/js0 also bein created. So we only have to add this line to the /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules file (create it if doesn't exist):

Code:

KERNEL="js*", NAME="%k"

Doing

Code:

rmmod joydev
modprobe joydev

allows me to test the configs without rebooting. Perhaps simply unpluging-pluging my gamepad also works (because it's USB, dont think serials would do so too).
