I was recently given an Atari Trackball as a present.  Unfortunately, it
was purchased several months ago, making it well "out-of-warranty."

Problem: It won't send the bits that indicate left-right movement.
         I get up-down and fire, but no left-right.

I opened it up and there are 5 chips inside -- a couple logic and a
multivibrator.  Anybody have the schematics or know where to get them?

Thanks.
