I tried defendguin (which I packaged) which uses SDL:

Warning: Could not open joystick 1.
The Simple DirectMedia error that occured was:
/dev/joy0: USB_GET_REPORT_DESC: Device not configured

SDL needs to support /dev/joy? style gameport joysticks in addition to USB ones. I found a patch for FreeBSD. Send-pr: pkg/22462: add joystick support to SDL

Based on newer SDL code and patch from FreeBSD ports, I made my /dev/joy0 work with SDL. It isn't perfect with defendguin, but does mostly work.

Packaged SDLJoytest. *Need to fix and submit.

Added myself to xearth markers file, supporting-cast.data, and to src/distrib/notes/common/main (which is used to make docs). I regenerated the http://www.netbsd.org/People/supporting-cast.html webpage and also updated a few images at http://www.netbsd.org/gallery/xearth/.
