Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-evdev

When plugging a Dual Shock 3 on a computer with an USB mouse attached,
then pressing the middle "P" (Playstation) joystick button to activate
the joystick, the mouse acts as a joystick, which makes it useless. The
mouse cursor comes back to the middle of the screen all the time, and
moving the mouse jerks the cursor left, right, up or down before it
quickly returns to central position (however the jerk is analog, since
it can be controlled by moving the DS3 analog pad slowly).

This is a regression from both Hardy and Intrepid Beta 1 (and from
Intrepid Aplha 6 too), starting from xserver-xorg-input-evdev -
1:2.0.99+git20080912-0ubuntu4 (today).

The problem doesn't appear with other joysticks (tested with a
Playstation 1 all digital original controler through USB converter, and
MS SideWinder Game Pad USB), except maybe for the PS3 Sysaxis joypad
(and even other wireless/USB pluggable joypad combination with a button
to activate the joystick)

Note : the jopystick behaving like a mouse is another bug report

evdev/+bug/274203).
