I can't get a M$-Sidewinder joystick to work. On my machine it is attached to the gameport of my SBLive. The documentation says two different things: english-doc: load emu10k1-joy - wich I can't find german-doc: load emu10k1 with option -joystick=0x0200 - but that option isn't recoginzed by that module. simply loading the joystick module works, but loading the specific joy- sidewinder module gives me an error.
try loading joy-sidewinder instead.
