[ammoQ]

I'm almost sure it's not a problem in pcsx, but in libgpuPeteMesaGL.so.1.0.61; this one crashes pcsx when pcsx calls it to get it's name and type. Removing it from the Plugin directory helped, but how to play then? libgpuPeteMesaGL.so.1.0.61 seems to crash epsxe also on MDK9.1

edit: The solution is described in the readme.txt of Pete's current plugin, just use
libpthread-0.10.so instead of libpthread-0.9.so

edit: the actions above make gpuPeteMesa work with Mandrake, but cause padJoy to crash in multithreaded mode, since padJoy would need the /lib/i686/ version of libpthread.so. To work around this, disable the multithreaded feature of padJoy; it will have little or no impact on most machines.
