I have an analog joystick plugged into the gameport of a Soundblaster AWE64. In 2.4.4-ac12 this was recognized and worked just fine. Under ac13 the recognition is incomplete - it seems to identify that there is a NS558 gameport device present, but not that there is a joystick plugged into it (unless I'm completely misunderstanding the log messages). Anyway, I've attached the .config for the ac12 kernel - the ac13 kernel is the same except I've enabled ECN. I've also attached the initial log messages for the ac12 and ac13 boots on the machine in question. Stephen Thomas
