Logitech USB Wingman Force Joystick...

Hello all...

        No joy with this joystick and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

        I just received a Logitech USB Wingman Force Joystick. I have
the iforce module compiled and loaded and the it recognizes the USB
joystick.

/var/log/message:

        Trouble is "jstest /dev/js0" says no such device.

        My RedHat 6.2 system initially had the following js devices:

        c 15 0 js0
        c 15 1 js1
        c 15 2 js2
        c 15 3 js3

        I was also getting these errors in /var/log/messages:

Sep 18 14:51:52 alcove modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module char-major-15

        The file linux/Documentation/joystick.txt says to use 13, 0-3,
so I changed it to this:

        c 13 0 js0
        c 13 1 js1
        c 13 2 js2
        c 13 3 js3

        Still no go, but at least I'm not getting the modprobe errors now.
My USB mouse on c 13, 63 is working like a charm.

        This is with kernel 2.4.0-test8

        So, I assume that I'm still missing something obvious here. What?

        Any thoughts anyone?

        Mike
