(I've never tried to use a joystick with a computer before, so forgive me for not knowing how to do this )

I've got this cheap USB video game controller, it has an 8 way D-Pad with six buttons (A clone of the Sega Saturn controller) but it doesn't seem to want to work. It shows up in dmesg
(usb 4-2: new low speed USB device using address 2
input: USB HID v1.00 Joystick [Saitek Saitek P150] on usb-0000:00:10.2-2)
and is using the input device /dev/input/js0. Is there something I have to add to xorg.config?

I've never used a joystick on a comp, let alone linux, but i did a little googleing and come up with http://www.linuxgames.com/joystick/ I hope it helps a bit with your problem.

Ah well, I'll just buy a new one. It only cost $10.00 anyway.
