I'm new to the beagle bone and am having difficulty reading the output of a 
thumb joystick.

I'm running Debian Jessie 8.2
Linux kernel 4.1.12-ti-r29

I've connected the thumb joystick as follows

vcc - p9_32
gnd - p9_34
hor - p9_36
ver - p9_38

i did not connect the pin for the switch because it is not needed.


All the instructions that I can find on the topic suggest that you have to 
enable the analog inputs on the BBB.  The instructions for doing so require 
using "cape-bone-iio".  I've read that cape-bone or bone-cape isn't the way 
things are done on linux kernels in the "4.x" range.

So my question is, how do I get the joystick output on my BBB running 
Debian 8.2 and Kernel 4.1?


Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
