Yes I use 2.4.18-xfs. I didn't modified it myself. The patched is meant 
by the XFS patch. And yes I am using devfs. Here is my /dev/input

where js0 only appears after I plugin the gamepad, and mice/mouse0 is 
already working fine.

It is still the same after I enable "CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT". Also what is 
mean by "make oldconfig"? I only "make menuconfig" and select the 
options and "make dep && make clean bzImage modules modules_install". Is 
there a difference?

Do I need to modprobe the evdev modules? It doesn't work after I do so 
anyway. Here is my lsmod for your reference:

Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted
evdev                   4096   0
hid                    18688   0 (unused)
joydev                  6784   0
vfat                    9308   0 (unused)
fat                    29208   0 [vfat]
usb-uhci               20996   0 (unused)
usb-storage            42172   0 (unused)
mousedev                3808   1
input                   3328   0 [evdev hid joydev mousedev]

Did I missed anything?

Thanks for your kindly help again.
