 For testing and other purposes (for example serial devices), a set of
 utilities is available at the abovementioned website. I suggest you download
 and install it before going on.
 
-2.2 Device nodes
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Device nodes
+------------
+
 For applications to be able to use the joysticks,
-you'll have to manually create these nodes in /dev:
-
-cd /dev
-rm js*
-mkdir input
-mknod input/js0 c 13 0
-mknod input/js1 c 13 1
-mknod input/js2 c 13 2
-mknod input/js3 c 13 3
-ln -s input/js0 js0
-ln -s input/js1 js1
-ln -s input/js2 js2
-ln -s input/js3 js3
-
-For testing with inpututils it's also convenient to create these:
-
-mknod input/event0 c 13 64
-mknod input/event1 c 13 65
-mknod input/event2 c 13 66

+The 1.0 driver uses a new, event based approach to the joystick driver.
 Instead of the user program polling for the joystick values, the joystick
 driver now reports only any changes of its state. See joystick-api.txt,
 joystick.h and jstest.c included in the joystick package for more
 information. The joystick device can be used in either blocking or
 nonblocking mode and supports select() calls.

 Any call to the joystick driver using the old interface will return values

 to 2 axes, and applications using it usually decode only 2 buttons, although
