onGenericMotionEvent not working with NewtBaseActivity

Hallo,

Joysticks are supported in android by overriding "onGenericMotionEvent" in a activity.

  public boolean onGenericMotionEvent(final android.view.MotionEvent event)

With my joystick no joystick event was ever fired to my JOGL based activiy, so I could not get this to work and I am not sure where the problem exists.

Its said that one has to set up the focus for the view, but as JOGL doesn't export a view, so I can not do that.
- setFocusable(true);
- setFocusableInTouchMode(true);

see here: http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/181102-Gamepad-Support

Any ideas?

Thank you!
