If this bug is really bothering you, you can apply one of these work- arounds:
1) Remove the input device /dev/input/jsX that is mapped to your mouse (I tested it and confirm it works) 2) Disable the joystick input via xinput (as described on the forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1663037) (I didn't test this, but other people seem to have success with it) 3) Add some udev rules as described here: https://gist.github.com/denilsonsa/978f1d842cf5430f57f6 (I tested this and it seems to work) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/713556 Title: Sharkoon Fireglider mouse is wrongly detected as a joystick To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/udev/+bug/713556/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
