Need some help from some bright spark here!

Have used Amibian and Amiberry, also Amikit and Amiberry, latest version 4.1.2 I think.

Have very unsucessfully tried to get 2 USB controllers working, both Monster Joystick 9 pin adapter and X-arcade stick, via USB.

When I installed both distros I managed to get the MJ adapter working just fine. I updated the controller datatbase and paths and now neither distro can find anything.

Have been on Amikit support, Jan is pretty helpful, but really this is not an Amikit issue I believe.

I suppose I could throw usb controllers and adapters at the thing until one sticks but really I need to know what I need to add in the controller configs to get this thing working, idreally the MJ adapater. I am pretty sure an old version of Amiberry was working but later versions seems broken? PI emulation is a bit rubbish without a controller!

Thank you
