Bug#289763: rsjog fails with no such device /dev/sonypi

[Geraint Paul Bevan]

Package: rsjog
Version: 1.1-4
Severity: important
I have just installed rsjog, but it fails with the following error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ rsjog
/dev/sonypi: No such device
/usr/bin/rsjog:437:in `initialize': No such device - "/dev/sonypi"
(Errno::ENODEV)
        from /usr/bin/rsjog:437:in `new'
        from /usr/bin/rsjog:437:in `listen'
        from /usr/bin/rsjog:97:in `initialize'
        from /usr/bin/rsjog:599:in `new'
        from /usr/bin/rsjog:599
The device does exist and the module is compiled into the kernel:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /dev/sonypi
crw-r--r--  1 root root 10, 250 Mar 29  2002 /dev/sonypi
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ zcat /proc/config.gz | grep SONYPI
CONFIG_SONYPI=y
The machine is a Sony Vaio PCG-GR370. If it is of any use in debugging
the problem, my kernel .config can be found at:
