I've asked this once before but nobody responded.  I can't get my Sidewinder 
3D Pro joystick working in cooker, whether I use XFree86 3 or 4.

With LM7.2, I have this in /etc/modules.conf:
   alias char-major-15          joy-sidewinder
and this in /etc/X11/XF86Config:
   Load "xf86Jstk.so"
and it works OK.  Kernel is 2.2.17-27mdk. /dev/js0 is char-major 15.

With cooker I have kernel 2.4.0-4mdk, so I have made the joystick devices 
accordingly - /dev/js0 points to /dev/input/js0, char-major-13.
/etc/modules.conf:
   alias char-major-13          sidewinder
/etc/X11/XF86Config:
   Load "xf86Jstk.so"
... X reports something like "xf86Jstk.so - /dev/js0: no such device"

For /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 I didn't know what to put, so I tried:
    Load  "sidewinder"
and /var/log/xdm-error.log reports:
    (WW) Warning, couldn't open module sidewinder
    (EE) Failed to load module "sidewinder" (module does not exist, 0)
so I loaded "xf86Jstk.so" as in XF86Config - xdm-error.log reports:
   (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/xf86Jstk.so
   (EE) LoadModule: Module xf86Jstk does not have a xf86JstkModuleData data 
   object.
   (II) Unloading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/xf86Jstk.so
   (EE) Failed to load module "xf86Jstk" (invalid module, 0)

Please help.
