Right now using the joystick with a trident sound card
on 2.4.x is not possible.
The joystick/pcigame give me tons of problems, like pci resource
conflicts and oops, anyway I'll came back soon with more detailed
data about that...
Forgetting the enhanced game port we can use the old legacy ISA ns558
driver but is a no go because the trident sound driver doesn't enable
that port :(
This patch allow to enable the legacy joystick port on
Trident 4DWave DX/NX.
The patch adds a new trident module param (joystick)
and a new config option.
I didn't try with a monolithic kernel, I hope that joy driver
driver will came after the sound driver..
Before xmas I need to turn my linux server on a X11box ;)
happy gaming,
luca
follow patch against 2.4.17rc2 inspired from a 1999 alsa-devel post:
