Add something like this to /etc/modules.conf and reboot:
# Joystick
alias char-major-13 joydev ns558 analog
Replace "analog" with the module for your gameport joystick. Read
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/joystick for more information. The line
above is only appropriate for 2.4.x kernels. Earlier kernels use
char-major-15.
