I am having problems accessing the joystick port.  The Joystick worked
with a previous version of FreeBSD (3.4 possible), but it does not work
now.  I've tried it on two different machines with different kernel
versions.

Machine 1:
  FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE
  (output of dmesg)
  joy0 at port 0x201 on isa0
  sbc1: <Creative SB AWE64> at port 0x220-0x22f,......
  sbc1: setting card to irq 5, drq 1, 5
  pcm0: <SB DSP 4.16> on sbc1
  joy1: <Generic PnP Joystick> at port 0x208-20f on isa0

When I access joy0, I get invalid xy positions and the buttons have no
effect.  Trying to access joy1 returned Device not configured.

Machine 2:
  FreeBSD 4.1.1-RELEASE
  (output of dmesg)
  sbc0: <Soundblaster Pro> at port 0x220-0x22f.....
  pcm0: <SB DSP 3.02> on sbc0
  joy0 at port 0x201 on isa0
  sbc1: <Creative SB16/SB32> at port 0x240-0x24f.....
  sbc1: setting card to irq 10, drq 0, 6
  pcm1: <SB DSP 4.13> on sbc1
  unknown: <Game> can't assign resources

Machine 2 happens to have two sound devices, one on the motherboard and
one on the Sound Blaster card.  There is not a game port on the
motherboard.  This machine behaves the same as machine 1.

Any ideas?

Thank you,
John Aughey
