joystick



hello all,
i'm new to linux and i'm trying to get my microsoft sidewinder working under debian 2.2. i've recompiled my kernel with:
make menuconfig (enabled joystick support; built-in sidewinder support)
make dep
make clean
make bzImage
make modules
make modules_install
after rebooting (and moving the "bzImage" appropriately), i ran snes9x only to find the error "/dev/js0: No such file or directory". i then tried MAKEDEV js (in /dev) & ran snes9x again -- now i get "/dev/js0: No such device". what am i doing wrong? i would appreciate any help you provide.

ps after rebooting i see the following
:
