Hmm, I see. Well I don't use OpenGL for this program (at least not yet). 
glxinfo displays a bunch of stuff that I'm not going to copy over unless 
someones wants me to, but it does say:

OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: RADEON 9700 Generic
OpenGL version string: 1.3 (X4.3.0-3.9.0)

And since I don't have a Radeon 9700 I guess its setup incorrectly. :( 
Oh well, I guess I have to (yet again) attempt to configure those damn 
ATI drivers succesfully. That doesn't solve the joystick problem though. 
Thanks for the help
