Calibration isn't meant to be necessary when you're reading the
joystick digitally -- the centre position is calibrated when you
initialise the joystick, and that's all Allegro needs for
digital access. Maybe this is broken in your OS though?
`exjoy' doesn't support digital-only calibration, maybe it
should (i.e. ask `analog or digital' before doing the full
calibration). Then you could test this. :)
