I've got all of the linux drivers installed and everything works fine
from the OS point of view (thanks to the joystick package).
There seems to be a total lack of information as to how to get the

I actually want to use it as the pointer device, or at least allow

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.

I've got a voodoo3 using X DRI which _was_ working just fine
until I "upgraded" to testing.
Now it's broke.
Everything I know to check is OK, but when I do glxinfo, dri is NOT
active.

Ok - I'll give it a try.
Thanks for the info.
Incidentally how are the mere mortals supposed to know this ?
I spent a lot of time at the dri site and didn't see this mentioned anywhere.
