Howto configure the Linux kernel / drivers / input / gameport Gameport configuration * Option: GAMEPORT * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ... * (on/off/module) Gameport support Gameport support is for the standard 15-pin PC gameport. If you have a joystick, gamepad, gameport card, a soundcard with a gameport or anything else that uses the gameport, say Y or M here and also to at least one of the hardware specific drivers. For Ensoniq AudioPCI (ES1370), AudioPCI 97 (ES1371), ESS Solo1, S3 SonicVibes, Trident 4DWave, SiS7018, and ALi 5451 gameport support is provided by the sound drivers, so you won't need any from the below listed modules. You still need to say Y here. If unsure, say Y. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called gameport.
