Hello,

...and thank you all for this next wow moment in my life with the N900! Tried Wiicontrol yesterday together with DrNokSNES and it works like a charm..

My only problem is: I keep hitting the B button together with the dpad while playing Mario Kart, which kicks me out of the game and sends me back to the main screen of DrNokSNES. Is there a way to prevent it from using mapping_b together with mapping_snes and/or mapping_l etc.? Or do I have to set mapping_b to screen taps or similar ?

I originally thought the B button didnt work but it seems to be a shift like button. B + Left is exit and B + Down is fullscreen I think... Havent tried disabling this but the setting is in the wiicontrol file, have a look.

I tried a few things, including commenting out

in

and sending all mapping_b to a single (unused) key. But all of these efforts did not change anything.

Any more ideas?

did you try changing any of the expressions from true > false - or false > true?

f2thak,

I have a different keyboard layout which requires me to use key-combos in order to input the up and down arrow.

As I mentioned in my post:

http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...3&postcount=27

I have different symbols where you have the up and down arrow, namely a scandinavian letter "ae" and puntuation mark.

Due to this problem I'm only able to input down and right with the wiimote.

i think you need to set your keyboard layout to US...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How To Configure Controls
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

you need to edit "/usr/bin/wiicontrol" file.

scroll to section shown below. (In _CODE-CODE_ section)

"mapping" section is for gamepad only mode
"mapping_l" section is for gamepad + gyro mode (accelerometers)

to change a specific button, (e.g. gamepad mode "A" button) you need to change only the key name within the ["a ???"] section, ??? being the key name. (e.g. 'A': ["a Q"] would set button A to the Q key.)

then in your games/apps just set the keys to whichever you set.

this should work!
