WOW, I just installed qjoypad, and its awesome, I can map all the buttons and axis on my logitech to any keyboard keys.

I just played quake on my logitech cordless rumblepad, and it worked great, I mapped the buttons to a b c d e f and so on, then went into quake and setup the contols.

FINALLY a working game controller woohoo

I also compiled joy2key, but the setup is not easy, there was a frontend, but it would not compile for me. But if you are not using KDE I am not sure qjoypad is going to help you, so you are going to have to learn joy2key.

Perhaps a maemo developer could make a qjoypad type application for maemo.



EDIT
WOW, using VNC, I was able to map the right click to a joystick button, This may prove usefull?
