I had the same problem, mabe you have to load the joydev module. I've all my joystick asa module, so in my modules_autoload I've added: analog, and joydev.
I recompiled my kernel so that ns558, analog, and joydev are modules. I have the ALSA driver for my Ensoniq 1371 built into the kernel. I think the gameport driver is part of the es1371 driver. I tried adding analog and joydev to my /etc/modules.autoload. They load just fine, although, there is no ouput in dmesg and I have no /dev/input/js0. I tried unloading them and then loading ns558 and I got a 'No such device' error. I reloaded analog and joydev by hand. Still no /dev/input/js0. I'm going out of my mind.
You said this is built onto the motherboard? Do you have BIOS support for the game port enabled? I also assume you don't have the option to use USB with this joystick.
Try also to see if it shows up in /proc/bus/input/devices (if you're using 2.6 - it might be the same in 2.4, or it might not).
Not built-in. Its a separate PCI card.
