Anyone Have An Adaptoid that works in Linux?


Hello all. Hardware related newbie question here.

Does anyone here have an Adaptoid USB controller for their computer, and gotten it to work in Linux? For those who don't know, the Adaptoid is an N64 to USB converter.

Since it's USB, Windows recognizes it and makes it work with no questions asked, but what do I have to do to make it work in Linux.

All I'm really wanting it for is ZSnes and maybe FCE Ultra.

Thanks,
AldebaranDanu

Ok, I went to Red Hat's Hardware Compatibility Guide, and found out that my Adaptoid is supported.

The comment on the site (http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/showdev.php?id=738) says that all I need is hid, input, and usbcore loaded.

What does that mean? I don't have to recompile my kernel or anything do I?

Thank you,
AldebaranDanu
