[Alsa-user] Via8233 + ALSA = no gameport port support?

[Richard R. <rwr...@be...>]

I'm trying to figure out how to get my joystick working with my new MB
(Epox 8KHA+).  With my old MB I had to enable the joystick support in my
(OSS) soundcard module, then gameport.o + ns558.o + sidewinder.o and it
would work.  However with the new MB ns558 wont load.  I did a modinfo
on the sound card module (snd-via8233) but I do not see an option to
enable the gameport.  So how do I enable it through ALSA?

I'm using ALSA 0.9beta11 with a custom built 2.4.18 kernel BTW.
