## 5.2. Other input devices

XFree86 supports the dynamic loading of drivers for external input devices using the `XInput` extension. Currently supported devices are:

- Joystick (`xf86Jstk.so`)
- Wacom tablets (Wacom IV protocol only, `xf86Wacom.so`)
- SummaSketch tablets (`xf86Summa.so`)
- Elographics touchscreen (`xf86Elo.so`)

To use a specific device, add the line

> ``load` `"`module`"``

in the Module section of `XF86Config`, where module is the name of the `.so` file corresponding to your device. You also need to set up a XInput section in `XF86Config`. Refer to the XF86Config(5) man page for detailed configuration instructions.

You can then change the device used to drive the X pointer with the xsetpointer(1) command.

For joystick support, you'll need to enable the joystick device driver in the kernel. See joy(4) for details.
