However there are no other utilities available i.e. for calibration of USB joysticks. Fortunately there is the js-linux package that provide linux compatible device files for joysticks (i.e. /dev/input/js0). Now plib is able to use also this input devices with the source that was written for native linux. It would be greate if there is a config dialog to select between the native and the linux driver compiled into plib. I did a crude hack into plib (interchange the UL_LINUX and UL_BSD defines in the js directory) and it works fine. So it should be a 1h work for an experienced port maintainer.
