[Bug 498222] [NEW] Saitek wireless mouse doesn't work because recognized wrong

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

When I plug in the mouse stick into usb, the following appears on dmesg:

[  638.764127] usb 2-2: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
[  638.935457] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[  639.037668] usbcore: registered new interface driver hiddev
[  639.060385] input: 2.4GHz 2way RF Mouse Receiver as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-2/2-2:1.0/input/input10
[  639.060715] generic-usb 0003:1BCF:0535.0001: input,hiddev96,hidraw0: USB HID v1.11 Mouse [2.4GHz 2way RF Mouse Receiver] on usb-0000:00:1d.0-2/input0
[  639.060757] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbhid
[  639.060765] usbhid: v2.6:USB HID core driver

but actually the mouse doesn't work at all. I guess this is because
Ubuntu thinks it's a keyboard device according to `xinput list`:

"2.4GHz 2way RF Mouse Receiver"	id=9	[XExtensionKeyboard]
	Type is KEYBOARD
	Num_keys is 248
	Min_keycode is 8
	Max_keycode is 255
	Num_buttons is 16
	Num_axes is 2
	Mode is Relative
	Motion_buffer is 256
	Axis 0 :
		Min_value is -1
		Max_value is -1
		Resolution is 1
	Axis 1 :
		Min_value is -1
		Max_value is -1
		Resolution is 1

Any ideas how to fix it ?

P.S. ubuntu 9.10 but same happened with 9.04 as well
