Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
On Ubuntu Intrepid, Xorg automatically picks up my Wired XBox 360
controller as a mouse. The joystick moves the cursor.
I suspect this is not how most users of the XBox 360 controller would
like to use it. It should not be automatically treated as an Xorg input
device by default.
It'd be slightly less problematic if it actually worked correctly,
however, a button press causes Xorg to restart. I will file another bug
regarding this.
Relevant Xorg log section:
