  • [VICE] USB trigger

    From Andreas Kohlbach@21:1/5 to All on Wed Mar 1 16:19:21 2017
    Am using the VICE emulator in Linux. Sometimes after starting a game I
    would opt to use a "joystick" (USB game pad here). But the game pad is
    not available then. I have to quit the emulator and start it again with
    plugged in game pad.

    Is there a way to get the game pad working without restarting VICE?

    You know you are a redneck if
    you have to check in the bottom of your shoe for change so you can
    get grandma a new plug of tobacco.

    No, it does the detection of USB HID devices on startup.

    You know you are a redneck if
    the highlight of your family reunion was your sister's nude dancing debut.
