what i'm trying to do is send gamepad events from a program running on one machine to dolphin running on a separate machine via the network... or usb if that were for some reason easy (like if some crazy driver exists for linux to make your usb port pretend to be a generic gamepad and receive events via a character device).
does dolphin run reasonably on linux (running ubuntu 10.10)? if this were the case I could probably use gizmod (has both client and server modes and can send/receive keyboard events via a socket). however, my underinformed intuition suggests that things will get weird if i try to run this under wine, so in the windows ecosystem do any of you travelers know of a free prepackaged solution that could be used for this purpose? some obscure keyboard event generating (or maybe a subsystem of some more comprehensive application) server that receives events over the network from a socket that speaks some simple protocol that already exists in linuxland libraries or is trivial to implement?
what about like, running gizmod under cygwin... maybe that would work?
i know nothing about programming on windows and i imagine that some of you do and may know this off the top of one or more of your heads.
there must be some quick and dirty way to move past this
