Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64
Version: 2.6.26-8
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***

While high cpu load there are false joystick input events like moving
joystick to it's down-right position. Here is how to reproduce:

1. run:

	jstest /dev/input/js0

you see it's output like this:

Axes:  0:     0  1:     0 Buttons:  0:off  1:off  2:off  3:off  4:off
5:off

2. in another terminal run something that increses your cpu load, for
example:

	while true; do true; done

(if you run graphical session you can just also try to move your window
fast left and right to increase cpu load, instead).

3. Look at the output of jstest, you see:

Axes:  0: 32767  1: 32767 Buttons:  0:off  1:off  2:off  3:off  4:off
5:off

When you break above intensive loop (or stop moving window), jstest output
is normal again.

The effect of this issue is you are unable to use joystick in most
games, of course. The same issue is on current Ubuntu 8.04 amd64
distibution.

Joystick related modules used: emu10k1_gp, analog (with map=gamepad
option).

Version: 3.4.1-1~experimental.1+rm

Debian 6.0 Long Term Support is now ending, and the 'linux-2.6' source
package will no longer be updated.  This bug is being closed on the
assumption that it does not affect the kernel versions in newer Debian
releases.

If you can still reproduce this bug in a newer release, please reopen
the bug report and reassign it to 'src:linux' and the affected version
of the package.  You can find the package version for the running
kernel by running:

    uname -v

or the versions of all installed kernel packages by running:

    dpkg -l 'linux-image-[34]*' | grep ^.i

and looking at the third column.

I apologise that we weren't able to provide a specific resolution for
this bug.

Ben.
