I've been having a lot of problems getting epsxe working, after upgrading from mandrake 9.0 to 9.1. I've been able to get pete's mesa plugin working by using the export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD fix. My big problem now is that I'm unable to get padjoy working now, it simply freezes epsxe before startup. I'm getting similar results with omnijoy, and _Linuzappz's plugin dosn't seem to detect my gamepad. Anyone have any suggestions on how to get padjoy working again?
 
I have mandrake 9.1 too, so I can tell you how to get it working:

.) Disable the "multithreaded" feature in padJoy, as it does not like the LD_LIBRARY_PATH-thingy.

.) to be able to detect the joypad (USB), run as root:

modprobe joydev
chmod a+r /dev/input/js0

Edit: to avoid having to run modprobe and chmod every time, try this (at you own risk):

.) add your login name to the usb group (eighter use UserDrake or edit /etc/group)

.) in /etc/modules.conf, replace

probeall usb-interface usb-uhci

with

probeall usb-interface usb-uhci joydev
