I have no clue whats wrong. I just installed my SpaceNavigator drivers, and they work fine in Sketchup, but not in Maya. After poking around in the forums I tried to do a manual install to make sure that it was going to the right spot, which they seem to be. It shows up in the plugin manager, and its on, but all I get is error messages like the following:
// Error: Cannot find procedure "_3DxOnDeviceChanged". //
// Error: Cannot find procedure "_3DxOnDriverFunctionsChanged". //
// Error: Cannot find procedure "_3DxOnMotionEvent". //
// Error: Cannot find procedure "_3DxOnMotionEvent". //
// Error: Cannot find procedure "_3DxOnMotionEvent". //
// Error: Cannot find procedure "_3DxOnFitView". //
// Error: Cannot find procedure "_3DxOnFitView". //
// Error: Cannot find procedure "_3DxOnTogglePanel". //
// Error: Cannot find procedure "_3DxOnTogglePanel". //
Any thoughts? I'd hate to find out I have a 150$ paper weight.

Error in Maya2010
Hello NickSoapdish
The // Error: Cannot find procedure \"_3DxOnMotionEvent\" indicates that the 3Dconnexion Maya plug-in is not being loaded.
The SpaceNavigator working in Maya 2010 depends on the command MagellanStartup either being executed by the usersetup.mel or being typed in.
Type MagellanStartup in the Maya script editor. If the plug-in loads, it indicates the usersetup.mel in use does not contain the MagellanStartup; line. Maya automatically loads the usersetup.mel which in turn starts the 3Dconnexion support for the SpaceNavigator with the line MagellanStartup; .To have the SpaceNavigator auto-start you can add the line MagellanStartup; to the end of your usersetup.mel.
If instead you see "Cannot find Procedure" it indicates the 3dconnexion Maya plug-in is not installed.You can add it using Repair function in Add/Remove Software with Maya closed [Windows ControlPanel- Add/Remove Software – 3Dconnexion – Modify|Repair]
Inside Maya, you can bring up a settings dialog by pressing the left button of your SpaceNavigator.[Start,Programs, 3Dconnexion, Documentation- Manuals - English Manual - Supported Applications- Autodesk Maya]

Thanks for the reply. Worked like a dream once I remembered to pay attention to case sensitivity. Though it still wont run on startup. The only thing in my usersetup.mel file is:
// The usersetup script is executed, when loading Maya
MagellanStartup;
Still, minor problem in the grand scheme of things.
