Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-joystick
After being advised in bug #274203 to report a bug for each joypad which
is being detected by X as a mouse, my USB Mad Catz controller since
testing the Intrepid Beta is now being detected as a mouse when hot-
plugged. The joypad used to work fine in Hardy.
My joypad is detected as a one button mouse, whereas the analogue stick
moves the cursor (and at times, cause the cursor to reposition to the
center of the screen immediately. The consequences of this is that I can
no longer play any games with my joypad (difficult with one or two games
I have) or leave it plugged in whilst I am using other applications on
the computer. The KDE Joystick module in system settings sees my joypad
but cannot detect any movement on the analogue sticks or button presses.
As per a fix due to bug #274203, my joypad no longer crashes X.
