A possible noob question........

[Darkmend]

Hi guys! First and foremost id like to thank everyone who has posted with tips in the Mala forums here A number of my problems have been fixed with this awesome collection of information. 
I just recently hooked up my I-pac4 to my control board and Im having a few problems(or at least what I think are problems)

1. Ipac4 doesn't need a driver(or so Ive been told), when I use it with mala it only recognizes the U,D,L,R and four buttons on both P1 and P2 controls. Also the up is down, down is up, L is R, R is L. Did i miss a configuration somewhere?

2. Also in the options menu, under HARDWARE, it says " Please connect Mala or Ultimarc hardware", when I have the Ipac4 hooked up to it. Is this normal?

Thanks for your time in advance and Im sorry if this was posted somewhere else, I looked 

Im using the newest version of MAME and mala

Are ypu talking about in use with mala or mame.?

 In mala you decide what key does what in options-controller-keyboard

You can use the ipac software to program the i-pac to use diffrent keys

2. Also in the options menu, under HARDWARE, it says " Please connect Mala or Ultimarc hardware", when I have the Ipac4 hooked up to it. Is this normal?

That is for the PacDrive not the I-pac.  I have changed the wording on the next version
