Ok, so after further investigation it seems like the default kernel is
not built with the joydev.o module support or with it compiled in.
I've rebuilt the kernel with CONFIG_INPUT_JOYDEV=m and built the
joydev.o module, but when I try to load it, I get an error stating
that the module doesn't match the version of kernel I'm running. Does
anyone with more linux kernel experience than me have any idea what
I'm doing wrong?
I am compiling the kernel in a cross compiler in cygwin and it seems
like there's a depmod call that fails at the very end of the
build(after the compile is done). I'm guessing that this is because
it's a cross compile, but I'm truly puzzled why I can't load the
module I built when the kernel is clearly loading and all the OLD
modules on the system(which I didn't rebuild) still load.
Also, the device seems to be /dev/input/js0, but MAKEDEV tells me it
sees a DevFS filesystem and bails. I've even hacked that check out of
makedev to go ahead and make the device(or made it manually with
mknod), but the device seems to not be attached even when I build the
kernel with CONFIG_INPUT_JOYDEV=y.
