  John,

    Yes - I had thought about this... but I'd still love to get the  
actual, correct emulation controlled light behavior. Crystal Castles,  
for instance, flashes one light throughout the game, etc.

   Andrea - any thoughts on the issue? Can you confirm Linux control  
is not functioning or are we doing something wrong?

   Also - on the broader question of scripting... is it possible to  
write scripts that are per-game conditional? I'd like to have certain  
things happen in one game but not another. I couldn't seem to get an  
if() statement working on that basis, though.

Thanks!
  - Aaron
