You should have a look at the bindings in your joystick.xml file
as there a bunch of defaults in there that you probably won't like.

I locally have a chproducts.xml file which is used inside the preferences.xml
file instead of the standard joystick.xml file, so that CVS doesn't keep
whingeing about all my little local variations.
