Stephen, Here is a running example of what happens:
Boot up messages, no usb devices attached.

hid.o, keybdev.o, input.o are not loaded.
Plug in Saitek Cyborg joystick.and run dmesg, Th following is added on.

Now, reboot the system modprobe joydev BEFORE plugging in joystick. Module Size Used by Not tainted joydev 6048 0 (unused) input 3232 0 [joydev] uhci 25616 0 (unused) ehci-hcd 17544 0 (unused) usbcore 62016 1 [uhci ehci-hcd]
Now plugin joystick.usbview adds Cyborg Joystick under the hub,
However, dmesg reveals:

input 3232 0 [keybdev mousedev hid joydev]

I also have a Belkin USB serial adapter that works just fine with USB. I hope this helps.

Are there any error messages in your kernel log files?

In playing around I notice something. Boot the system with the joystick unplugged. Plug in the joystick and usbview reports cyborg joystick. Plus, modules input, hid, keybdev and mousedev are now loaded. Unplug the stick and it goes away in usbview. Plug it back in and it is listed as an "unkown device" 2.4.22 kernel.
1: Why is joydev not being loaded when the joystick is plugged in, but the other hids are? 2: Why after the first plug in is it listed as unknown when unplugged and plugged back in again?
