Ubuntu seems to see the keyboard as a joystick control. Package Joystick Calibrator 1.5.6 confirms by listing Microsoft Digital Media Pro Keyboard as a joystick device on /dev/input/js0 Behaviour includes taking over control of any joystick enabled games and continuously pushing control to the left or causing a menu selection to continuously move down or up. Affected games that I know of so far include Tux racer, Alex the Alligator, Track mania Nations forever (wine) and Final Fantasy 8 (wine). A workaround is to run Joystick Calibrator, click on Calibrate and save settings. This seems to 'calibrate' the keyboard properly and stops it from interfering with games. Ubuntu version is 9.04. Wine is version 1.1.24.
