Problem using L/R buttons and pad configuration - Imh0tep - 02-11-2010

Hi friends,
can anybody help me configuring my gamepad? I'm using a Sony Dualshock connected via USB and SVN R 5031 (tried different versions).
No matter what I map my L and R buttons to, they are not recognized inside the games. Other buttons seem to work fine. What should I set the trigger source to? Triggers or Analog1? And second, what is the difference between trigger source SDL and XInput? Both don't work for me.
Second problem: I'm trying to play Mario Sunshine but once I pick up the water device, every move I make results in water being sprayed. On the one hand I cannot make the water gun work with the R button, on the other hand I cannot stop it from spraying when I try to walk around.
This all seems to be a problem of me being too dumb to configure my pad. I searched the forum without success, so pretty please:
Can anybody post a screenshot of his configuration? That would probably help me a lot. Thanks in advance!

It's true! Setting the triggers to "keyboard" makes L and R work again - and Super Mario Sunshine is now playable again. Thanks a lot for the hint thaCASHdude!!

Would you post a screenshot of your GC gamepad configuration here, just to compare your settings? thanks again!
