Anyone get the vision-daptor and RetroPie on speaking terms? :)

Do any emulators work with the vision-daptor? I am having a hell of a time getting anything to recognize my controller beyond the EmulationStation screen.
I tried lr-freeintv but I think I'm missing a config someplace. In the RetroArch menu there's no place to redefine the controls that I can see. I see "Load Remap File" and it asks for the device but beyond that I am stumped. All I get are the side buttons and the disc.
jzintv doesn't do anything either. Same thing - all I get are the side buttons and the disc. I can use my keyboard to activate the number buttons but obviously not what we're looking for.
Am I just stupid or something? :)

Yes there is some configuration required but it is not hard to set up. Needs a hack file.
Look here
http://intellivision.us/intvgames/interface/interface.phpAnd here
That should get you started. Personally I use the vision adapters for my Intellivision, Colecovision, and Atari controllers. I don’t set anything up in Retroarch. I use the hack files for the complex controllers.

@gpmcty Thanks. :)
I ran through the first link at intellivision.us many times and couldn't figure out what I did wrong.
I didn't know about the second link - the topic here - as it didn't come up in my "vision-daptor" search.
I will run through these on Monday when I'm off and hope for the best. :)

@classicgmr i have the vision-daptor running great on the pi. In libretro emulators you cant use the keypad as far as i know. Except if you programmed things like x, y, start and select to the keypad. I dont because i use genesis controllers and stuff on it and map those buttons to that. If you tag me tomorrow i can help you with jzintv and coolcv with the vision-daptor.

@edmaul69 @gpmcty I tried editing the config file as the website stated, but still can't get it to work. When you say hack file, do you mean the one the listed (the config file edited)?
I can't get vision-dapter to work at all. It is identified, but I get the message 'Not Configured'.
Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
