Gamepads, or more widely known as game controllers, can be used with many
applications and games. However if you compiled the kernel yourself, the
kernel drivers for gamepads are not enabled. Go ahead and enable the kernel
options below and recompile the kernel if necessary.

Now you should be able to plug in your gamepad and play. If you want to use
the gamepad wirelessly, you will need to connect it via Bluetooth. You can
enable Bluetooth by following the BLFS page <ulink
url="&blfs-svn;/general/bluez.html">BlueZ</ulink> if you haven't already
compiled it. If you have chosen to install a desktop environment, if not
already done, you can likely install a bluetooth application specific to
the desktop environment.
