I recently installed SimplyMEPIS 2.6.10, running on a Dell Dimension XPS T500 
(PIII 500MHz, 256MB RAM, Nvidia GeForce FX 5500). Install on previous Linux 
Fecora Core 4 worked fine. This MEPIS system installed the FlightGear OK, 
except the program won't recognize the CH Yoke and Pedals (USB). 

Did the "Bourne shell" steps (per my paths) outlined in section 3 (page 28) of 
the getstart.pdf file.

When I did the "dmesg | grep Joystick" the result was:
input: USB HID v1.00 Joystick [CH PRODUCTS CH PRO PEDALS USB ] on 
usb-0000:00:07.2-1
input: USB HID v1.00 Joystick [CH PRODUCTS CH FLIGHT SIM YOKE USB ] on 
usb-0000:00:07.2-2

But, the js_demo resulted as follows:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] js_demo
Joystick test program.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Joystick 0 not detected
Joystick 1 not detected
Joystick 2 not detected
Joystick 3 not detected
Joystick 4 not detected
Joystick 5 not detected
Joystick 6 not detected
Joystick 7 not detected

And the jstest  was not found in this install:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] jstest
bash: jstest: command not found

Looking for ideas on getting the controls working. All help appreciated.
