Some time ago I gave a go to trying to get my gravis joypads running along with zsnes. After going through usbhidctl and /usr/share/misc/usb_hid_usages I figured it would be pretty easy just to assign a letter to each of the actions and then use those to map everything in zsnes. Turned out that some buttons on the gamepad produced seemingly the same scancodes, never really did get it to work. usb_hid_usages does seems to give some sort of global standard, as they have scancodes for d-pad movement in there. // nick
