I haven't had any problems using the Linux joystick driver
1.2.13 (from Vojtech Pavlik) with RTL 1.1 (2.0.36 kernel).
I've been testing with a cheap analog joystick.
This is used with a real-time task to control the output of
a DIO and an AO board in conjunction with a custom scientific
instrument.
I haven't looked at the implementation.
