I created a joystick.fdi in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/:
"<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<deviceinfo version="0.2">
 <device>
   <match key="input.product" string="HID 6666:0667">     
     <merge key="input.x11_options.SendCoreEvents" type="string">false</merge>
     <merge key="input.x11_options.StartKeysEnabled" type="string">false</merge>
     <merge key="input.x11_options.StartMouseEnabled" type="string">false</merge>
   </match>
 </device>
</deviceinfo>"
Then rebooted, but it didn't work. I've still got mouse and keyboard events being generated by my joystick.

Here's the lshal entry:
