Description of problem: The joydev.o module is missing from the kernel rpm package, even though the config file has the following setting: CONFIG_INPUT_JOYDEV=m Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.4.21-4.EL kernel-2.4.21-9.0.1.EL How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Attach a USB joystick device to the machine Actual results: /var/log/messages shows that a USB joystick has been connected and is recognised as a HID device, but the reports the following: "modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-13-0" joydev.o is not present in the kernel rpm. jstest /dev/js0 reports: "jstest: No such device" Expected results: modprobe should be able to find and insert joydev.o jstest should be able to query the status of the joystick.
Actually, the joydev.o driver is contained in the kernel-unsupported-* RPM, which unfortunately means that it is not supported in RHEL 3.
