Bug Description

With latest stable kernel 3.2.0-29-generic, when you plug in the XBox 360 pad at X.Org startup, it puts your mouse pointer to the upper left of the screen. The only workaround consists in unplugging the XBox 360 pad, wait some time, plug it in and not touch any of its button.

This is a regression from the 3.2.0-29 kernel, it did not occur with kernel 3.2.0-27.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.5kernel[0] (Not a kernel in the daily directory) and install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages.

Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. Please only remove that one tag and leave the other tags. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text.

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".

Thanks in advance.

Julien Aubin, as per http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M2NSLI_Deluxe/#support_Download_5 an update is available for your BIOS (1804). If you update to this, does it change anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Thank you for your understanding.
