error:

if i kill kb no new ones are started.  my joy pipeline starts the
emulator without complaint, but pushing the buttons on the ibuffalo
has no effect inside the emulator.

i tried this same method with the rii gp100 and get similar results,
except that *two* of its buttons (not all of them) actually do things
inside the emulators.

thanks,

sl
