Hi

can't reproduce the crash when no joystick is plugged, but I'm not using 
ubuntu + I'm using sdl 2.30 and not 2.2 as the user reported.

If user can compile hatari himself (should be rather easy under 
linux/ubuntu), maybe he could try first to add some printf's (that you 
would provide) to see what param gets a wrong value ?
