I'll try to keep it short so the bug report doesn't become huge.
First, I'm not an Ubuntu developer ;)

Martin Emrich (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-
input-evdev/+bug/274203/comments/64) you should check the version of
evdev (see my previous comment https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/xserver-xorg-input-evdev/+bug/274203/comments/60) because either you're
not up-to-date and you'll just confuse the developers, or the bug isn't
solved and they need to be informed (by reopening the bug).

CypherDelic your bug is actually a duplicate of this bug. Since you
provided the required information in Bug #283399, you can mark it as a
duplicate now. Also no need to write the information in your posts,
attachments are good enough.

@everybody : please don't quote the post you're answering to (I guess
you're using email) - it shows quite badly on Launchpad.

Now, back to the bug reports:
X crashing has been fixed, that's why the bug it marked as "Fixed". Since 
Ubuntu developers were expecting joysticks not to work anymore in Intrepid 
after changes in Xorg, this bug report has not much point (that's maybe why 
they also closed it against xserver-xorg-input-joystick.

I've created two wiki pages
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Joystick_lshal_outputs_done and
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Joystick_lshal along with a forum
thread at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=953639, please follow
the wiki pages guide if you want to help, for other discussion the forum
thread might be appropriate.

By the way, I've managed to find an fdi file for Sony Dual Shock 3 and
Sysaxis game pads (tested, it works when copied in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/
). It's attached (DualShock3.fdi), if you won another joystick you might
be able to edit it for your own model.
