It's been many years since I had a joystick, but as I remember, when  
you display the page Yuri linked to, you simply move the joystick and  
click it's various buttons (probably after clicking the ":Calibrate"  
button) and the display will show what input it received from the  
device.  The main calibration is that the X in the middle of the box  
should stay centered when you are not touching the joystick, and it's  
position should follow the direction in which you move the joystick.
