Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-evdev

Ubuntu 8.04 x86_64

I am using the evdev driver for my mouse Logitech G5 (new edition with 2 thumb 
buttons)
so I can use all the fluffy buttons of that great device.

Extract from xorg.conf:
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier                      "Standardmaus"
        Driver  "evdev"
        Option  "Device"                
"/dev/input/by-id/usb-Logitech_USB_Gaming_Mouse-event-mouse"
        Option  "SendCoreEvents"        "true"
EndSection

When running Games like ETQW, Quake3Arena or similar, the mouse movement
is completely broken.

My solution:
Disabling dga does improve things a little.
ETQW is just fine now.
But Quake3Arena is... well... strange. Slow movements are completely ignored 
there.

This is how I disabled dga in my xorg.conf:
Section "Module"
        Load            "glx"
        SubSection      "extmod"
                Option  "omit xfree86-dga"      # don't initialise the DGA 
extension
        EndSubSection
EndSection
