        ls /opt/retropie/configs/all

        @meleu sure here it is

        ls /opt/retropie/configs/all

        autoconf.cfg joystick-selection.cfg runcommand.cfg
        autostart.sh retroarch.cfg runcommand-launch-dialog.cfg
        content_history.lpl retroarch.cfg.rp-dist runcommand-onstart.sh
        emulationstation retroarch-core-options.cfg
        emulators.cfg retroarch-joypads

        also in this link here is my retroarch.cfg in /all/

        /opt/retropie/configs//all/retroarch.cfg

        my joy settings in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/DragonRiseInc.GenericUSBJoystick.cfg

        input_device = "DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick "
        input_driver = "udev"
        input_l_btn = "8"
        input_load_state_btn = "8"
        input_start_btn = "7"
        input_exit_emulator_btn = "7"
        input_up_axis = "-3"
        input_a_btn = "2"
        input_b_btn = "3"
        input_reset_btn = "3"
        input_down_axis = "+3"
        input_r_btn = "9"
        input_save_state_btn = "9"
        input_r2_btn = "4"
        input_right_axis = "+0"
        input_state_slot_increase_axis = "+0"
        input_x_btn = "0"
        input_menu_toggle_btn = "0"
        input_select_btn = "6"
        input_enable_hotkey_btn = "6"
        input_y_btn = "1"
        input_left_axis = "-0"

          @superdan oh... you use "save config on exit" turned on. It's a good way to go mad. :-)
          I suggest to use it turned off. To do so, you have to delete ...all/retroarch.cfg again and then rename that retroarch.cfg.rp-dist to retroarch.cfg.

            @meleu thanks

            here is the new version.

            /opt/retropie/configs//all/retroarch.cfg

            Do you think now is good?
            Thanks

              Hello I am having trouble with my USB arcade sticks not being recognized by my new PI Zero. I plug them in and emulation station doesn't show any gamepad attached.

              I built these arcades sticks myself using a PS3/PC ZERO DELAY USB ENCODER PCB as the input device and all of these arcade sticks work with my PI 2 for the last year.

              All of my regular gamepad (Microsoft sidewinder a seem to work. Is it perhaps an issue with the retro pie image file for the zero not supporting these arcade stick devices? Or is it that this little device doesn't produce enough juice to power these larger controllers

              Is there a possible fix?

                @superdan you say if it's good. Are your hotkeys working fine?

                    @superdan you f+×%#ed up your configs while the "save config on exit" was on. I suggest you to rename the retroarch.cfg.rp-dist in your ...configs/fba/ directory to retroarch.cfg

                    Maybe it happened to several other files...
