You're right, and I guess that's why the binary package only has 2.0.27 and 2.0.30 versions in it. But on the subject of joysticks, I have a MS "Sidewinder 3D Pro" joystick which claims to be a digital stick. Fortunately it also seems to run in a compatibility analogue mode though not everything works: the "throttle" (slider) and 4 buttons on the base don't work. The effect of the switch appears merely to turn on/off the "hat". To anyone who uses one of these, have I missed any features? To all and sundry, is there any work in progress on driving digital joysticks digitally (not that I particularly want to run a Sidewinder Force Feedback Pro and get whitefinger syndrome!).
