How did the problem got fixed? Since as far as I can tell, I am running the latest version of xserver-xorg-input-evdev and Xorg continues to grab my Xbox360 gamepad. In addition to that if I install xserver-xorg-input-joystick the problem gets far worse, since not only is the gamepad grabbed, it also breaks the mouse, since the cursor constantly moves upward.
