I haven't seen this really mentioned anywhere or in the Doom FAQ, so I
am forced to ask here.  Is there anyway to use a joystick with Doom
under OS/2?  Whenever I try, the dos session locks-up after the screen
showing the still of the marine with the weapons in his hand.  This has
happened to me on every OS/2 machine that I have tried to use a joystick
with Doom.

So, has anyone got this to work??

P.S.  If any of the juvenile users that I have seen posting on this
group feel like trying to prove their manhood by insulting this message,
don't bother.  I won't be insulted, so don't waste your time.  I'm only
interested in replies from people who know what they're talking about,
and have something useful to say.  I appreciate your time.
