Hello,
I got my sidewinder joystick and SBlive gameport working with bascule's help
by adding: emu10k1-gp joydev to modules. .. and from googling
found this added it to modules.conf... alias char-major-13 analog
rebooted ..
then... $modprobe joydev
then... $modprobe sidewinder
in that
you need to list the modules in /etc/modules
lines like:
alias char-major-13 analog
go into /etc/modules.conf
i'd try without adding that line alias... line first, just to check if it's
necessary, i don't have it for loading the analog module on my machine

rick,
when i said put the alias line in modules.conf but try without it i didn't
mean to imply that you didn't need a reference to analog in /etc/modules, cos
you do!
the alias line simply tells the kernel that the module analog is the one that
controls devices that have that major and minor

oop - my mistake 8) although, thats what I obviously dont fully
ok, you got me, i'm not sure, here are my two files:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bascule]$ cat /etc/modules
scsi_hostadapter
emu10k1-gp
ns558
analog
joydev
the ns558 is for a second gameport so you don't need this, you will need the
sidewinder module but you already have that listed
