rite, was/is all working finewith josef's joystick object.
theres one tiny issue remianing:
when starting + quitting pd with the joystuick pathc a few times the object starts to mix up the outlets. most axes dont come out at all and the buttons come out the right -2 and -3 outlets and dont give 0 or 1 but 0 or -32767
when i _keep having jstest /dev/input/js0 running all the time it seems to work better i.e. the mixup phenomenon does not appear.
cheers, hog
