noticed other users not having any luck for quite some time getting a joystick to work
Off to using Peanut and Slackware, no hard feelings but I need my CD to burn, PDA and scanner to connect and arch won't do it.

#and place this below section header
### Joystick support ###
/sbin/modprobe joydev
/sbin/modprobe emu10k1
/sbin/modprobe emu10k1-gp
# next line is your joystick make, grip is for gravis ...
/sbin/modprobe grip
/sbin/modprobe interact
--
#chmod 666 /dev/input/js0
#chown root /dev/input/js0
for devfs I add this but still no go.
edit /etc/modules.conf

well you will need to compile your own kernel we do not have grip or interact compiled in

i got my gamepad working fine, it is a USB gamepad from gamefactory, pretty cheap. All i did was modprobe joydev, and done, i know have /dev/js0. You need hotplug and usb kernel modules. Some of the stuff i have gotten working with ir are: xmms(using joystick plugin), mplayer (i recompiled 1.0pre1 with joystick support), zsnes and gltron. If there are any games people recommend playing with a joystick, please tell me.

If anyone cares, I just bought a USB adapter that let you use two playstation controllers on your PC. It's mega sweet. Shows up as:
input: WiseGroup.,Ltd TigerGame PS/PS2 Game Controller Adapter as /class/input/input4
input: USB HID v1.00 Joystick [WiseGroup.,Ltd TigerGame PS/PS2 Game Controller Adapter] on usb-0000:00:1d.0-1
