      I bought a controller kit from amazon to replace my USB controller.

      When going through the setup, it doesn't recognize the joystick. After a bit of up & down to see if it's listening, I get a crash to the shell with a:
      void InputManager::addJoystickByDeviceIndex(int): Assertion 'id >= 0 && id < SDL_NumJoysticks()' failed

      Any thoughts of what to check? I've checked all the wiring and it looks good, I think.
