I am still waiting on my card arriving but I have just received the following information from Dirk Jagdmann the author of the linux joystick and keyboard drivers

"I updated my MK3 drivers to MK4. However they currently don't support any of the new features the MK4 has. The plan was to merge my joystick,keyboard code with the SID code that simon white wrote, but as there are currently still some issues we have not released anything yet."

So I guess I we will shortly have Linux support for the joystick port even if we have to wait a while for windows drivers.

So I guess its time to give e-uae a try.

I thought I would just post to say that I now have my catweasel mk4 and although the windows drivers do not yet support pass-through you can use the pass-through feature before the windows drivers is loaded, so you don’t need to disconnected and reconnect the floppy to use it normally.

So you can use it boot off or load a SCSI or SATA driver form floppy while installing windows.
You can also use it under windows if you go into device manager and disable the “Catweasel controller PCI” device under “IndividualComputers devices” then reboot.

When you are finished using the floppy under windows all you need to do is go back into device manager and re-enable “Catweasel controller PCI” device then you can use it again without rebooting.
