I don't know if it also applies to you but the module for my gravis
gamepad pro (grip) is conflicting with analog. Try to prevent it from
loading. If you're using hotplug as I am put "analog" it into the blacklist.

Have you got the package joystick installed? If I recall correctly then
it should create all the appropriate devices as needed.
Be sure to read the joystick-related stuff in the input part of your
kernel-doc if you're still running into problems later.
Also this problem might be related to udev, I don't use it and can't
give you advice on that though.

Shouts, Roman.
