I'm using a usb Logitech Wingman Extreme Digital 3D. That's the kind of name
you get when you throw too many marketers at the problem :-)
Worked out the box with redhat. The usb is via a dongle, so you can also use
it in a standard game port.
I highly recommend this stick - it's good value for money, or at least it was
when I bought it. They changed the appearance slightly since the early
versions, making it uglier in my opinion. Still, a good stick: twisty
handle, throttle, hat, 7 buttons. Southpaw-incompatible, though.
