Bug Description
I upgraded from Xubuntu 16.04 to Xubuntu 20.04 and I found that my Logitech Precision Gamepad (a USB gamepad) seems not to be supported, it does not work well
The behavior is different in each application involved:
1) in ZX Spectrum emulator "fuse-gtk" the directions do not work, the emulator thinks I am always pointing to the right
2) in Sega Mega Drive emulator "dgen" the buttons do not work (the games do not react to them)
3] in DOS emulator "dosbox" using the gamepad crashes the application
the jscal utility shows wrong directions for both the axises
the only application where the gamepad works well is the jstest-gtk utility: I am able to calibrate the gamepad there and then it reacts properly (in this application only), but I don't know if the information is stored somewhere
the gamepad worked in Xubuntu 16.04 without any problems

Solved this by buying a different gamepad. I thought that Logitech being a renowned company means the gamepad would be compatible with Linux :(
