Hi!
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:

Hi!
I must say I don't like the patch much. If there is anything going to be
added to trident.c in regards to enabling the joystick, I think most of
the pcigame.c code should be moved in there. That way, there won't be
resource conflicts and we won't lose any functionality.

There are couples of other pci cards that do the same
and right now is the only way to make joystick works with
trident sound card.
I hope to help some users around here.

Not necessary, 2.2.19 joy-pci code works fine, no conflict
no oops, what about comparing against 2.4.x pcigame ?
Unfortunately I don't know how do that, but I can help you
testing patch, etc...
I hope to provide you the oops I've got insmodding analog
tomorrow.

I don't understand where the problem came from, with
2.2.19 everything work fine, I can use the joy-pci with
the trident module up and running, with the 2.4.17rc2
trident and pcigame are mutually exclusive.
Because of the 2.4.x pci changes ? Let's see.
ciao,
luca

If you'll be able to get me the decoded oops, I'll be very grateful,
because I've got some reports about analog oopsing and I haven't been
able to reproduce that.
