kcmshell first tries the init_ function and then falls back to the create_ 
function. Therefore the last error message from KLibLoader mentions the 
create_ function only.

The .desktop file say X-KDE-FactoryName=kcm_joystick but the symbol is called 
init_joystick. You either have to change the X-KDE-FactoryName to joystick or 
the init symbol to init_kcm_joystick.
