You'll have to provide more information. I presume you don't really mean the joysticks break, but rather that Linux won't use them properly. What happens when you try? What messages appear in the system log when you plug in the joysticks? What shows up in /proc/bus/usb/devices? > Are these devices nonstandard hid devices and usb-uhci is just more tolerant > than the JE driver? is there a usb=tolerant option or something, if so? I don't know anything about any particular models of joystick, nor about the differences between the two 2.4 UHCI drivers. Linux 2.6, up until the very latest development kernel, is very intolerant of devices that don't comply with the USB specification; maybe your joysticks are defective in that regard. There is no usb=tolerant option or any equivalent, but when the 2.6.7 kernels appear they should accept many deficient devices that 2.6.6 rejects.
