I think danellisuk's approach is interesting. I wonder if there is any
"null" key they could be redirected to?

I wrote a program called joystickwake to work around this problem until display

Adding xscreensaver as an affected package, as it exhibits the same
behavior as gnome-screensaver in this regard.

Agree whole heartedly with Stephan Sokolow. We need a way to have the X
server handle the joystick without having it send the mapped events to
other applications. Was there any response from upstream?
For now, here is how you can enable the joystick within the X server:-
sudo apt-get install

I have tested this and can confirm the issue still remains on both
Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04, so marking as confirmed. The technical reasons
behind the current behaviour do not cause the issue at hand to become
invalid. Upstream may have marked this as invalid, but this remains an
Ubuntu issue, and
@10: It shouldn't. Expecting every game, past present and future
(including closed-source ones where the developers bundled a copy of
everything except libc and libGL to avoid having to maintain them) to
special-case joysticks on Linux is insanity.
This disagreement over approach reminds me of a
I'm on Ubuntu 12.04, and each of the Steam for Linux games I've played

I don't know if it's realistic to expect them to all patch to deal with
this themselves, and I'm not sure the responsibility should be on them.

So this was never concluded. Why did it become Invalid?
Did someone mistake this for a discussion of the problems with the mouse

I suppose it is more of a feature request than a bug, but why couldn't

The upstream task has become invalid because upstream has determined
that the best workaround is for joystick using applications to inhibit
screensaver activation directly. In the unlikely event that all games
are ported to use the X joystick interface, it may be appropriate to

if you wish to script this you can add gnome-screensaver-command -i to your
game launchers to inhibit the screen saver .
I have yet to find a way to stop this command when the game quits

Unfortunately, gnome-screensaver checks the X event queue to determine when an
event occurs, and most joystick using programs in ubuntu use the kernel event
interface (or legacy /dev/js0) from libsdl.
Regarding the mouse scroll, there is a limitation in X that only one client may
