I am running dolphin 4.0-5456 on ubuntu 14.04 and I cannot find any of my connected controllers.
I am using playstation 2 controllers connected to a playstation 2 to usb adapter.
I tested with jstest-gtk and that is able to recognize both controllers and all the joysticks and buttons, so I know they are being registered by linux.
I know they are under /dev/input/js0 and js1 however there are also event0-12 in there as well.
I tried installing xboxdrv too see if that would help but still nothing showing up in dolphin other than Xlib/0/Keyboard Mouse and Xinput2//Virtual core pointer
is there anyway I can get dolphin to recognize my controllers?
My solution, which isn't really a solution but it worked for me was to run debian instead of ubuntu.
I was running Openelec and a debian chroot in order to get the needed libraries, the controllers were not being recognized by the ubuntu chroot.
I think the real reson for the difference was in ubuntu I was using ubuntu's SDL lib and in debian, when building dolphin, there was no SDL li, so dolphin used its own.
