This is ridiculous. Why is this not marked Critical?! No games are
playable without the joystick interrupting the game window!

I tried fooling around with xorg.conf and if I don't have:
Option "SendCoreEvents" "false"
in:
Section "InputDevice"
 Identifier "Configured Joystick"
 Driver "joystick"
 Option "Device" "/dev/input/event3"
 Option "SendCoreEvents" "false"
EndSection
the cursor moves all the way to the upper left part of the screen.

I tried Albert Damen's fix and that didn't change anything.

It's bad enough that Linux has a bad reputation with gaming but this bug
makes Linux look even worse. Everything was working great in Hardy. This
regression makes nothing playable on my end. I should have not upgraded.
