Package: xserver-xorg-input-joystick Version: 1:1.5.0-6 Severity: important Tags: experimental Justification: Makes desktop environment almost unusable. Dear X Strike Force, I've installed the joystick input driver yesterday alongside evdev (also from experimental). And that lead to an unusable desktop environment (KDE in my case). It seems like joystick is reporting key presses that didn't happen (the Joystick wasn't touched) or reported multiple events for keys on my keyboard. E.g. if I'd press the up arrow key in Konsole it would also report the down arrow, which lead to a constant switch between an empty line in the shell and the last entry. If I moved the mouse near the borders of the screen the virtual desktops would switch in an endless cycle until I moved the mouse back to the middle of the screen. Unfortunately nothing is logged to /var/log/Xorg.0.log, so I'm not entirely sure it's joystick, it might also be evdev which isn't coping well with joystick. But I'd be happy to assist you in debugging this.
