I'm trying to get my joystick to work but everything I have tried has
failed miserably. I tried doing

modprobe snd-ens1371

and got the following output

Does the joystick_port message mean that it is or isn't configured?

That's the sound card - what about the joystick modules which I think are
separate (never really connected one)
