Now I`ve done it and finally it was so simple (if I just had have the relevant tips in time!).
I d id not need neither knowledge about video mode nor Joy2key. I just had to start ET with +set in_joystick "1" and my strategic commander works.

Hmmm, now X it is, ok. Well, starting my joystick remains a riddle. According to the Joy2key instructions I have to start the game first, then start the Joy2key and target the crosshair to the games X-window. But RTCW-ET, once started, seizes the whole screen, so how could I start joy2key? Here are ...

Does anyone know in what mode rtcw-et in Linux is running, X, console terminal or console raw. I need to know to make joy2key work for my joystick.

Thanks a lot!
I found and installed joy2key and it seems to work.
Then I worked through the readme and found it rather complex.
In which mode do I have to start: X, Terminal or raw console?
Well, I'll give it a try and if successfull, I will report!

I play ET in linux and try to make my joystick work. I have installed qjoypad which translates joystick buttons to keyboard inputs. It works perfectly for different linux games but there is no reaction in ET.
Has anyone got an idea how I could make my joystick work for ET under linux?
