Logitech Wingman Attack joystick

[Alex Teslik]

In case anyone is wondering, I wanted to add this back into my kernel because
I prefer not to load modules. Adding the line:

device joy

to my kernel conf and recompiling worked. Strange that the joy device doesn't
appear in my dmesg, but appears in pciconf -lv...
Either way, it works for me.

Thanks,
Alex
