[PLUG] es1371 module and joystick


A couple of weeks ago I posted about how my soundcard uses the 
es1371 module.  Previously, adding the following line to
/etc/modules loaded the correct option for my joystick:
options libranet-sound-0 joystick=0x200

After doing an apt-get upgrade, the system seemed to be
ignoring this line.  dmesg reveals that the driver is 
assigning the port 0x0 (an invalid address)

Today, for the heck of it, I commented out the module line
itself.  ON REBOOT, THE SOUND MODULE WAS STILL LOADED!
(And yes, with the 0x0 joystick address).

Anyone know how the system knows to load the es1371 module
if it's not mentioned in /etc/modules?  Is there some other
file out there?

Is there some option for autodetecting hardware on boot that 
I can turn off?  This is not mentioned anywhere that I can
find.

Libranet 2.0 apt-get upgraded to Debian 3.0r1, kernel 2.4.18

Thanks,

Greg Helledy
