As mentioned by Micah, it doesn't appear this is a video card issue,
but rather an issue with SDL Joystick support. Things work fine with
the patch below. Is anyone able to use SDL Joystick support
successfully (either with mednafen or with something else)?
The weird thing is, I don't even have a joystick connected, but it
thinks I do:
uhidev0 at uhub2 port 3 configuration 1 interface 0 "NOVATEK USB Keyboard" rev
1.10/1.04 addr 2
uhidev0: iclass 3/1
ukbd0 at uhidev0: 8 variable keys, 6 key codes
uhidev1 at uhub2 port 3 configuration 1 interface 1 "NOVATEK USB Keyboard" rev
1.10/1.04 addr 2
uhidev1: iclass 3/0, 2 report ids
uhid0 at uhidev1 reportid 1: input=1, output=0, feature=0
uhid1 at uhidev1 reportid 2: input=3, output=0, feature=0
If I had to guess, uhid0 is for the sleep button on the keyboard, and
uhid1 is for the mute, volume up, and volume down buttons.
Here's the gdb output for mednafen without the patch below, if mednafen
recognizes a joystick:
Thread 2 (thread 532442):
