When the last Debian release was coming up, I had deselect downloading from

Hi!
I have got Linux Debian 2.1 (slink) on a Pentium with a Creative Labs Sound
Blaster 16.
I compiled by myself the kernel 2.2.13 and I enabled the joystick support
and I installed
the joystick package too.
All applications don't recognize my Thrust game pad attached to the SB16's
game port.
