I have a M$ Sidewinder USB force feedback joystick. The question is: which modules do I have to have loaded for it to work (/dev/js0)?

I'd guess 'hid' 'joydev' and 'sidewinder', but it still doesn't work. My current loaded modules:
Code:

Module                  Size  Used by    Not tainted
joydev                  5824   0  (unused)
emu10k1-gp              1480   0  (unused)
keybdev                 2080   0  (unused)
mousedev                4244   0  (unused)
hid                     9912   0  (unused)
usbcore                40640   0  [hid]
sidewinder             10008   0  (unused)
input                   3552   0  [joydev keybdev mousedev sidewinder]
gameport                1676   0  [emu10k1-gp sidewinder]
sr_mod                 14200   0
sg                     28076   0  (unused)
ide-scsi               10416   0
emu10k1                61800   1
ac97_codec             11112   0  [emu10k1]

I have an M$ Force Feedback 2, and it works (not without bugs), but with those modules + uhci for the USB controller itself. Sidewinder is not necessary in my case. I hope that helps!

I tried insmod'ing both usb-uhci and uhci (the other is the alternate driver), but /dev/js* didn't still appear. The joystick powered on, though.
