Microsoft SideWinder GamePad does not want to work

Microsoft SideWinder GamePad does not want to work

[Klaus Umbach]

Hello list

when I load the modules "analog emu10k1_gp sidewinder gameport
joydev" I get this error-message in the log:

input: Microsoft SideWinder GamePad on pci0000:01:08.1/gameport0 [3-bit id 75 data 5]
wait_for_sysfs[13535]: either wait_for_sysfs (udev 045) needs an update to handle the device '/class/input/js0' properly (no device symlink) or the sysfs-support of your device's driver needs to be fixed, please report to <linux-hotplug-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>

so here is my report.

modprobe joydev results in:

I've added this now to the list of devices where we don't expect a
device link.
You may upgrade your udev version, later ones will not print any of
these messages.

Thanks,
Kay
