[SDL] USB gamepad

[Casey ODonnell]

The only thought I have is that perhaps windows is hijacking your
joystick? I've got quite a few people using PS2 dual-shock controllers
and USB Smart Joy adapters for them. They've worked on Windows and Mac
OS without any drivers or additional work by me. SDL just detects it.

If Windows is perhaps intercepting the signals from your
joystick/gamepad and attempting to send some other signals...that
might be trouble.

Cheers.
