Creating joystick drivers for Linux - Part 2

Thanks for you help Andrea. I looked the sourcecodes and the interfaces too. 
I think it will be more easy than I believe.
Can I ask you something? The joystick that I created is based on PC2JAMMA 
hardware, but with a lot new stuff. It
can support 2 joysticks, with 8-way directional and 6 action buttons plus a 
start button too. It have a coin detector and a service
switch too. In total, we have 24 input data on the hardware with debounce 
circuit for each input.
This hardware can enable / disable the video output from pc to the arcade 
monitor too, and put / release the parallel port
in tristate mode too.
It´s a very good hardware and I got the maximum mark in my final graduation 
project with it.
I would like to add this hardware to AdvancedCD and to other linux versions 
too as fast as I can, but I would like to
add this hardware project to the Advance project too! This hardware can help 
everyone with arcade cabs and can give some
funds to the Advance project.

So, think about it!
Thanks
