Thanks a million. I read that part on the website about the driver in the kernel now.
One question, when new versions of the driver come out to support newer joysticks, will the make work? Or will we have to recompile the kernel to install it? Also, is there any other switches for the modprobe analog js= ? Maybe something that would had more functionality. I can get the joystick and throttle working now, but even with the js=fullchf, I cant get the hats to work.
