    Hi,

    I’m trying to figure out how to setup my 2 xbox controllers on the N64 (Mario Kart), normally I use jstest to see what the numbers are mapped to on the controllers. Using my notes I normally go here to test, but it’s not working. I’m using 3.4:

    Then I go to /opt/retropie/configs/n64/mupen64plus.cfg to setup my controllers.

    pi@retropie:~ $ cd /dev/
    pi@retropie:/dev $ cd /dev/input/ ls -lah
    pi@retropie:/dev/input $ jstest /dev/input/js0
    -bash: jstest: command not found
    pi@retropie:/dev/input $ ls
    by-id by-path event0 event1 event6 event7 js4 js5 mice mouse0
    pi@retropie:/dev/input $ ls -lah

    pi@retropie:/dev/input $ jstest /dev/input/js4
    -bash: jstest: command not found

    What am I doing wrong?

    Is opt/retropie/configs/n64/mupen64plus.cfg still the only way to configure the controllers, there is no GUI for this like the others?
