I've gotten all the new updated Joystick stuff from CVS. But there still
seems to be something missing. This is the list of errors I get when it
tries to do the GLX stuff.

Plus there seems to be files missing. I got hold of the source code, and
then went to the CVS to get the updates so that I could recompile it.
And I get the above error. When I modify the Makefile, to get it to
create the files needed for the addons (Xatrix & Rogue), it tells me
that there are files missing and then aborts the compile. I would really
like to fix the joystick problem, but I can't when I don't have all the
files needed to recompile it. Any suggestions as to where I can obtain
the complete source code would be appreciated.
