I've been trying to find out how to setup a joystick in 8.0, but all I see is a kernal mod (which scares me because I don't know how to do it). I installed Suse without a joystick and now I'm wondering how much work I have to go thru to get it working. Thoughts??? Thanks, Tom

Are you using a USB or Gameport connection? Curtis On Sunday 01 September 2002 00:51, Tom Nielsen wrote:

Thanks!!!! That worked like a charm.
There were only a couple things that are different in 8.0. 1) Like you
said, I don't have to link. 2)jscalibrator is jscal. Other than that,
it's working great.
Thanks again!!
