I've been trying to think where I've heard a similar problem before but
I haven't so far.  I want to say that there was some calibration trick
to do before running a (the) game and that would fix it.  If I can
remember where I saw that I'll get you a link but you'd probably be able
to find something with a good google search too.  I do think it was
something with that particular joystick though.

I'm currently working on a slight overhaul of the joystick code in the
game.  It's so slow that it will knock 15-30 off of the FPS so a fix is
long time coming.  That's mainly for buttons though and I've got that
fixed (not in CVS) but need to redo the axis stuff too.  It wouldn't
really help with your situation obviously, but related fixes are coming
to CVS shortly so it might help some.
