ok, now at least I'm in the right area. I still get the following error
though:

vatican# joy
kldload: can't load joy: Exec format error

Is the problem with the joy module, or something else? joy.ko is in
/modules, where I believe it should be. (3.1-RELEASE, btw, as I snipped
the original question out)

Thanks, 

Mike
