I actually want to use it as the pointer device, or at least allow
it's input as a pointer device - in place of, or (preferably) in
addition to the mouse.
Getting more than one pointer device to work is not a problem. I just
need to get the joystick to be recognized as a pointer device.

X doesn't care about your joystick. If it works on the console, it

Well I think there was a problem with the xlibs .deb, as I had the symlink
set up correctly - /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults was pointing to
/etc/X11/app-defaults, but xlibs decided it was wrong and removed it. Then
when it tried to update its settings it died due to a broken pipe.
So I mkdir
/etc/X11/app-defaults
AFAIK all the packages that put stuff into misplaced app-defaults
should be fixed, s of now their app-default stuff is ignored (at least
that's what the message says).
possible solution:

I know that this chipset is not explicitly supported in XFree86 4.0.1,

There are xfree 4.0.1 packages by the Debian X maintainer, but they are still
