Title:
  Mouse (A4tech Bloody v7) - recognised as joystick

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Behaviour includes taking over control of any joystick enabled games
  and continuously pushing control to the left or causing a menu
  selection to continuously move down or up. "

  Package jstest-gtk confirms by listing COMPANY USB Device as a
  joystick device on /dev/input/js0

  Affected games: Joe Danger 2 (linux port) , Super Street Fighter IV
  (wine)

  Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I have same problem in Ubuntu 13.10. It exists in
  mainline kernel, too.

  WORKAROUND: delete file "/dev/input/js0"
