[CentOS] CentOS 5 x86 & Joysticks

OS: CentOS 5.1 x86.

Hi, has anyone used any joystick under CentOS 5?

Yumex shows the following joystick-related packages installed:

"freeglut 2.4.0-7.1.el5"
"joystick 1.2.15-20.2.2"
"xorg-x11-drv-joystick 1.1.0-1.1"

I am under XFCE 4.4.2 but I also have GNOME and KDE installed.

Any ideas on how to configure a joystick under this configuration?

Thanks a lot.
