Hello,
Under Documentation/joysticj-parport.txt there is a description of
how to build an adapter for attaching SNES/NES control pads to
the parallel port. It says to use diodes. I am wondering what
kind of diodes should I use? aswell is it safe to bridge
pin's 4 - 9 together with diodes to get more power?
John
