I'm not finding much in the way of documentation here...I'm trying to get LM8.1 to 
recognize my logitech joystick (digital 3D).  It is attached to my SB live! soundcard 
gameport.  the soundcard is detcted fine under the 2.4.8-34 kernel according to 
harddrake.

after making the appropriate ritual sacrifice to google, the only thing I found in 
searching told me to 'modprobe ns558' and entering that yielded the following:

[root@localhost input]# modprobe ns558
/lib/modules/2.4.8-34.1mdk/kernel/drivers/char/joystick/ns558.o.gz: init_module: No 
such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO 
or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.4.8-34.1mdk/kernel/drivers/char/joystick/ns558.o.gz: insmod 
/lib/modules/2.4.8-34.1mdk/kernel/drivers/char/joystick/ns558.o.gz failed
/lib/modules/2.4.8-34.1mdk/kernel/drivers/char/joystick/ns558.o.gz: insmod ns558 failed
[root@localhost input]# harddrake
Can't open file `/dev/fd1' for reading!
Can't open file `/proc/parport/0/autoprobe' for reading!
[root@localhost input]# uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.4.8-34.1mdk #1 Mon Nov 19 12:40:39 MST 2001 i686 unknown
[root@localhost input]# 

I went ahead and included the errors when launching harddrake if that helps out the 
elders.  any ideas?

the only other thing that came up was when jose reccomended configuring the sound card 
from the control center.  doing that gives me...

/lib/modules/2.4.8-34.1mdk/alsa/snd-card-emu10k1.o.gz: init_module: No such device
/lib/modules/2.4.8-34.1mdk/alsa/snd-card-emu10k1.o.gz: insmod 
/lib/modules/2.4.8-34.1mdk/alsa/snd-card-emu10k1.o.gz failed
/lib/modules/2.4.8-34.1mdk/alsa/snd-card-emu10k1.o.gz: insmod sound-slot-0 failed

quite frustrating.
