That's what you find in many forum-threads and i could also reproduce it. Most of the forum discussions are from the time before udev, so the dev-entries where made with "MAKEDEV js". Of course this entries are lost after reboot now. When i did create them manually they didn't work even. > Even after manual restart of udev. > As far as I understand the joystick needs drivers as any device.

In squeeze the drivers are existent and can be loaded as you can see: r...@pc10:/# modprobe gameport r...@pc10:/# modprobe joydev r...@pc10:/# modprobe analog r...@pc10:/# lsmod | grep gameport gameport 17040 3 analog,snd_ens1371,snd_cs46xx r...@pc10:/# jstest /dev/js0 jstest: No such file or directory jstest is a joystick test program. You can see if the interface is working, even if there is no joystick connected. Regards Karsten -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
