Please add the Roccat Tyon Mouse to the blacklist. It's recognized as a joystick on Xubuntu 16.10.

Hi guys, regarding this: I have the same mouse & issue; if I use this script won't it mean the mouse isn't recognised therefore I can't use it? That's how I interpret the description in the readme, please let me know if not. Thanks!

@SimonDedman, hi!

TL;DR: Your mouse should still work fine. Only the joystick part is disabled, the rest should continue working.

Some hardware/physical devices are recognized as multiple software/logical devices. For instance, a keyboard that has a built-in touchpad is one hardware device, but it generates two software devices: one for the keyboard and one for the mouse/touchpad.

The scripts in this repository work by disabling or removing the "joystick" (AKA gamepad) software device from the blacklisted hardware. Thus, a Microsoft keyboard will only be recognized as a keyboard, and not as a keyboard+"fake-joystick-that-does-not-work".
