+The linux_js kernel module supports analog joysticks through the
+joy(4) driver, which must be loaded as a module or compiled into the
+kernel. USB joysticks are not yet supported.
+
+To load the kernel module immediately, type the following command:
+
+ kldload linux_js
+
+To load the kernel module at boot, add the following line to
+/boot/loader.conf:
+
+ linux_js_load="YES"
+
+To test your joystick(s), type the following command:
+
+ jstest /dev/input/js0
+
+To calibrate your joystick(s), type the following command:
+
+ jscal -c /dev/input/js0
+
+To save the calibration data at system shutdown and restore it at
+boot, add the following line to /etc/rc.conf:
+
+ jscal_enable="YES"
