Well, usually, before to ask stupid questions on mailing-lists I always try to find a 
solution by myself but, this time, no way... even if I read so many posts....

The question is: I can't get my gamepad work (microsoft sidewinder gamepad usb on a 
Debian Linux)
Now I tell You what I did, tell me where I did any mystake:

1. Xmame sources files comes with Makefile and makefile.unix, I just used 
makefile.unix and, there, I uncommented the line:  JOY_X11 = 1 

2. Then I wrote: make -f makefile.unix

3. Then: make install

Now, each time I try to start a game (using for example: xmame.x11 
/usr/games/lib/xmame/roms/mpatrol.zip -jdev /dev/js -jt 1) I obtain: 

OSD: Warning: unknown joytype: 1, or joytype not compiled in.
   Disabling joystick support.

But I compiled it, no?

I tried everything, also different -jt, such as -jt 4
I also tried to use -jdev /dev/input/js instead of /dev/js
But I always receive same message. Maybe I don't compile as I should? I still don't 
understand I should use the given Makefile or the makefile.unix and what's the 
difference.
Please help me, if You can, and sorry for my english
All the best,

Paolo
