Description:   Opened: 2003-12-30 09:13 0000
When using the EMS2USB joystick adaptor with linux, both josysticks on the
device appear as one joystick with 32 buttons and 8 axis. The 'new i386 linux
1.x.x driver' only enables 16 buttons, so the buttons on the second joystick do
not work.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Configure EMS2USB adaptor
2.Run xmame
3.Try to configure buttons for joystick 2
Actual Results:  
The buttons on joystick two are not seen by xmame

Expected Results:  
Xmame should have assigned the buttons for joystick 2
