@vitamin: Thanks for your patience, and sorry for the late reply. Using lshal I saw that my gamepad was at /dev/input/event1 so I chmoded it to 777. After that I removed the registry setting for DirectInput so I didn't mess with what wine could do automagically. I executed the PES6 settings with wine and now when I pushed any of the previously non-working buttons I get in stdout: Code: fixme:dinput:joy_polldev joystick cannot handle type 4 event (code 4) fixme:dinput:joy_polldev joystick cannot handle type 4 event (code 4) A bit of an improvement but still the buttons don't work. I don't know if putting a smart string in the DirectInput registry would help... Thanks!
