Has anybody gotten a joystick to work successfully with mandrake? I have a
Gravis GamePad Pro. I downloaded the latest joystick drivers and compiled them.

I the did:

$ insmod joystick

which worked fine. Then I did:

$ insmod joy-gravis
joy-gravis: no joysticks found
joy-gravis: init module device or resource busy

Should a game port module be loaded for my soundcard? If so, then I'm thinking
that's the problem. Right now I only have the following modules loaded:

es1371                 23852   1 
soundcore               2372   4  [es1371]
ip_masq_irc             1520   2 
ip_masq_raudio          2768   0  (unused)
ip_masq_ftp             2384   0  (unused)
vmnet                  11616   1 
vmmon                  15136   0  (unused)
autofs                  8996   1  (autoclean)
3c509                   5812   1  (autoclean)
rtl8139                11964   1  (autoclean)
vfat                    9180   0  (unused)
fat                    30176   0  [vfat]

In the sound section of the kernel configuration menu there's an option under
most soundcards to use the joystick port but because sound support is modular
and the card driver support is modular this option is not available. Am I going
to have to rebuild the kernel with builtin sound support to use the joystick?
