Description
When I have my usb gamepad connected, the mouse cursor get stuck in the lower right corner. When i try to move it, i can see it moving for short while, then it jumps back into the corner.
This happens with the touchpad, a wireless usb mouse and a logitech mx518 usb mouse. The gamepad is an Saitek P880. The computer is an Asus EEE 900.
Attaching the output of listdev, listusb and listusb -v.

You mean in combination with a USB gamepad, right? If the mice don't work themselves then that'd be another issue. Also if both PS/2 and USB are affected it'd likely be a problem in input_server. If it is in combination with another USB input device, does it behave normally if this extra device is removed?

Also experiencing this issue on hrev40934-4h with a Logitech USB Cordless RumblePad 2. The mouse pointer jumps to the corner the instant I press any button, d-pad, or analog stick. I also noticed that gamepad_button_1 corresponds to the primary mouse button and gamepad_button_2 to the secondary mouse button.

(In #6490) Replying to modeenf:
hm how does one close it as a duplicate?
By "resolve as" -> "duplicate". Maybe you don't have the right permissions to do so though. And you must not add blocking manually to the other ticket as otherwise it'll prevent this from being closed. It gets added automatically.

This is "expected" right now, as usb_hid doesn't, in the current form, enumerate devices by their application collections but by their report items. Gamepads and joysticks or anything with an X and Y axis are therefore interpreted as mice and can be used as such. This was originally by design to get things working. It'd not be a problem per se either, as when not using the devices it should simply not move the cursor. However, since the null states and units aren't implemented either, these devices will cause the described symptoms. I'm currently restructuring the usb_hid driver (see #7354) which will change the enumeration. After that proper support for these device types will be added (see #7429 and #7354 again).

That's a feature! You're supposed to move the cursor with the gamepad ;-) Kidding aside, this probably comes from a wrong conversion of incoming values in usb_hid. Or even more likely it is due to completely disregarding null states in usb_hid so far. Need to look into it.
