Joysticks are a very common device, so I think they have their place in the default kernel configuration. CONFIG_INPUT_JOYDEV=m Without this setting you won't have any joystick support in SDL and other games. I assume by far the most joysticks today are usb connected through usb. Though some additional joystick modules probably wouldn't hurt (for old boxes it's very common to have these): CONFIG_INPUT_JOYSTICK=y CONFIG_JOYSTICK_ANALOG=m CONFIG_JOYSTICK_SIDEWINDER=m Reproducible: Always matze@braunis.de 2007-03-23 13:24:37 0000 BTW: I just noticed that the x86_64 config apparently has it enable. It's odd that x86 doesn't have it. wolf31o2@gentoo.org 2007-03-26 23:46:56 0000 I've added this now to SVN... wolf31o2@gentoo.org 2007-04-05 15:01:07 0000 This is fixed in genkernel 3.4.7 which is now in the tree.
