Cold War game on linux .... mouse/Joystick?

[ted leslie]

Just bought the Cold War game for linux,
it rocks on my new Nvidia card.

I have never really used Linux for gaming, so I thought i would start
with this game.

It uses mouse and keyboard for controls
and this is just killing me, being so used to a crapbox-360 crapbox-1
ps2 gamecube, where the controller is thumb joysticks.

I know linux can use a pc-gaming based joystick, even some pretty fancy
ones,

but is there any software that can "trick" the game once running to
swap the joystick for the mouse? This games doesnt seem to support
joystick, but if i could get the joystick to be seen as a mouse, then my
problems would be solved,
else i am going to have to relearning playing games with a keyboard,
yikes, that takes me back 13 years to doom on a 386!
