** Summary changed: - Microsoft keyboard being detected as a joystick + 045e:0745 Microsoft keyboard being detected as a joystick
** Description changed: - Certain Microsoft keyboards seem to be added as joystick devices. The - keyboard/receiver in my case is a Microsoft Wireless Keyboard 3000, and - a quick jstest says the following: "Joystick (Microsoft Microsoft® - 2.4GHz Transceiver v6.0) has 37 axes and 57 buttons". + The keyboard/receiver in my case is a 045e:0745 Microsoft Wireless + Keyboard 3000, and a quick jstest says the following: "Joystick + (Microsoft Microsoft® 2.4GHz Transceiver v6.0) has 37 axes and 57 + buttons". The main problem with this seems to be that in any application that uses a joystick, navigation is impossible because the keyboard joystick device /dev/input/js0 keeps sending nonsense to the application. (usually resulting in the "cursor" ending in left top/bottom corner). A way to bypass this might be to rmmod joydev, but this will naturally prevent the use of actual joysticks.
