usb joystick controller board button setup

This is especially usefull on linux with kernels 4.4-4.8 as there is a bug in the driver that messes up the analog axes.

This topic describes settings for the preceding key and subkeys that define the device, configuration, and interface descriptors for the device. The output on the analog stick is still discrete but provides the output on the left analog stick axes. Registry keys related to the device-side USB drivers are under: HKEYLOCALMACHINESystemCurrentControlSetControlUSBFN. It switches your joystick from providing output (not input) on axes 0 and 1 (The left analog stick) or axis 4 and 5 (the d-pad). Make sure to get the orientation correct, which is white side of the ribbon facing up, towards the red ball on the joystick Once weve got that sorted, we can start to plug in the button wires. (yes, R to the left of L is the correct mapping for games like street fighter on PC and consoles as R1/R2 is used as buttons 5 and 6 on a gamepad) Plug one end of the ribbon cable into the joystick port, then plug the other end onto the 5 pins on the joystick.

I have my 8 button joystick wired up like so: (with 1,2,3 and 4 corresponding to triangle,circle, cross and square.) If wired up correctly it should be correctly configured in games that support these gamepads. The DragonRise USB controller is commonly used in clones of the PS3 dual shock gamepad. My board identifies as '0079:0006 DragonRise Inc. I have a different Bosega board without led-support so I am basing my comments on that.
