Hi

Anyone got any recommendations for USB game controllers that work under 
Ubuntu & Wine? Preferably something that has plenty of programmable buttons.

I've currently got a cheap generic "dragon" controller which does the 
basics in a weird half-hearted fashion. I'm not a "gamer" by any 
definition but do play Dungeons & Dragons Online quite a bit.

I understand some people use old USB XBox controllers?

Any experience or knowledge gratefully received...

Cheers

Wired Xbox 360 USB controllers work with most games that have controller support. I prefer the genuine ones but there are cheaper compatible ones available.

Kevin
