Controller setup issues

Describe your system:
 - Operating System (be specific): Ubuntu 14.10
 - Machine type (32-bit or 64-bit): 32-bit
 - Mupen64Plus version: 2.0
 - Plugins used: none

For visual artifacts, give:
- game name and CRC/MD5 hash (printed on console)
- description of the artifact (missing polygons, flashing, wrong colors,
etc)

Describe the problem: Can't configure my DragonRise joystick controller

Please provide any additional information below.

When making changes to my controller configuration - in either InputAutoCfg.ini or
in mupen64plus.cfg - the configuration doesn't work, nor is it recognized. When I make
the manual changes in mupen64plus.cfg, the changes revert back to default as soon as
the UI is started. As for the InputAutoCfg.ini file, I'm able to put the correct information
in the file, however it doesn't make any difference as far as application goes. What
I found somewhat strange is that my InputAutoCfg file isn't located at /usr/local/share/mupen64plus
or at /usr/share/mupen64plus. In fact, neither of those directories exist. Mine is
located at /usr/share/games/mupen64plus. Not sure that it matters at all, but figured
I'd mention what I know.

This has been somewhat frustrating, so if anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it!

I'd try putting the InputAutoCfg.ini in /usr/share/mupen64plus and see if mupen parses it then.

Edit: Oh, this might have been moved from Google Code or something. Poor bryan will never see this.
