RH 8.0 shipped with 2.4.18 plus some vendor modifications/patches.

For linux-2.4.18 from kernel.org, with CONFIG_INPUT_JOYDEV=m, drivers/input/joydev.o is generated as expected: [EMAIL PROTECTED] linux-2418]$ ll -tr drivers/input/joydev* -rw-r--r-- 1 rddunlap rddunlap 14353 Sep 30 2001 drivers/input/joydev.c -rw-r--r-- 1 rddunlap rddunlap 9508 Nov 17 20:23 drivers/input/joydev.o | In addition, I generated the joydev.o using "BuildIn" option.

After 'make modules' in the linux/ directory, use 'make modules_install' to copy the modules to /lib/modules/<version>. -- ~Randy ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.
