    1. No, there is no settings panel.
    2. Yes, lowlevel.library does have support for such gamepads. What did you try it with exactly?

    Mostly PowerSDL games (OpenTyrian, Frogatto, SDLPoP), but it turns out that the D-pad isn't working on any of them (only the left analog stick), and the fire button is mapped to the "View Button" (and I was stupidly only using the D-pad and A/B/X/Y/L/R buttons on the menu screen to test...). So, it is working after all (sorry for the false alarm). Can the fire buttons/d-pad be remapped somehow, as using the View button as fire is not very practical?

    Thanks for the help.

    Try

    Code:
    setenv save LOWLEVEL_XBOX_USEHATSWITCH 1


    in a shell and reboot. That ought to make it use the d-pad. No idea why the view button would be used for anything though - it should not. Sadly I do not currently have this variant of the 360 controller to check.

    That did it - thanks!
