Do you have that version correct? I'm assuming you mean raylib 4.2.0 and 
raylib-d 4.2.1?

Highly recommend to update to raylib-d 4.2.4, and use the the Linux 
raylib-d:install as that now works (and will properly grab the correct 
raylib library from the repository for you).

For your specific problem, I would say that if it's not working, it's 
not a problem specifically with raylib-d, but with raylib. Such 
functions are just prototypes in raylib-d, the C library does the 
implementation.

This would probably be best actually to discuss either on the raylib 
discord (there's a raylib-d channel) or open an issue in my repository. 
Raylib does a lot of logging things, you can probably see if your 
gamepad is detected.
