Yes I did have a Logitech USB joystick that worked.  Just configured the 
kernel for it and when I plugged it in it worked.  In the case of the 
CombatStick I configured the kernel with every possible joystick supported 
but it does not work.  So there must be something else that I need to 
configure.  When I do a lsusb I get:

Bus 001 Device 004: ID 068e:00f4 CH Products, Inc.

and dmesg | grep Joy give me:

input: USB HID v1.00 Joystick [CH PRODUCTS CH COMBATSTICK USB] on 
usb-0000:00:02.0-10

So it is clearly being seen at some level but things like jstest,  jscal and 
jscalibrator do not see the joystick at all.  I am running kernel version 
2.6.14 at this time.  I guess that I could configure all of the joystick 
drivers as modules and then load each by hand and test the joystick to see if 
any of them seem to get farther along with the joystick.  I will turning on 
everything in the kernel that might be related to this to see what happenes.
