~$ ls /dev/input/
by-id event1 event12 event15 event3 event6 event9 js2 js5

by-path event10 event13 event16 event4 event7 js0 js3 js6
mice mouse2 mouse5 mouse8
event0 event11 event14 event2 event5 event8 js1 js4 js7
mouse0 mouse3 mouse6 mouse9
it is easy.
If you put one gamepad microsoft you get until js4
if you put two, you get till js8
dgen doesnt like that at all
zsnes either
one gamepad = one joystick shall be for being seen for linux
this bug is present since over 6 months
