Description Brandon Captain 2007-11-14 04:29:20 UTC
on a gentoo system, the joystick devices are loaced in /dev/input, so this is what the -DEVDIR flag needs to be set to when compiling qjoypad.

as it is, DEVDIR isn't even set, so it ends up being "", which won't let the program find the devices...and as such, won't work.

in the ebuild for qjoypad-3.4.1, simply change the following line
from: 	eqmake3 qjoypad.pro PREFIX=/usr
to: 	eqmake3 qjoypad.pro PREFIX=/usr DEVDIR=/dev/input

digest, and compile. viola.
