Hello!



I'm a user of Hoary 5.04 Kubuntu



First of, you have to find the module to load for your gameport by
typing 'lsmod' (for example, mine is 'emu10k1gp' on my SBLive!
soundcard)



Then, simply edit '/etc/modules' as root ('sudo kwrite' then open
'/etc/modules') and add those 3 lines:

emu10k1-gp (or whatever the name of the module for your gameport)

joydev

sidewinder



After that, reboot your system to test your gamepad
