Hello, I hope I'm doing this right, this is my first post here...

I've gotten Gridwars installed and working - for those who are unfamiliar it's a clone of Geometry wars. The problem is, I cannot seem to get it to recognize my gamepad. Chances are that's my bad, I'm still learning about Ubuntu, although every day I learn a little more.

What I'm using is a playstation 2 dual shock controller, through a super dual box pro USB adapter. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if Ubuntu is even recognizing the thing.

Soooo...I guess what I need is first for someone to tell me how to confirm that Ubuntu is working with the adapter, then someone who is familiar with Geometry wars to help me figure out how to make the gamepad work with it.

Hopefully I've given whoever decides to help me enough information.

Please help? I'd hate to have to boot back into Windoze just to play Gridwars!
