Hi, I can't tell you whether the issue started after an update/upgrade sorry - I've only noticed it recently.
I've installed the 4.7 upstream kernel and the bug is still exhibited: eddie@codey:~$ uname -a Linux codey 4.7.0-040700-generic #201607241632 SMP Sun Jul 24 20:34:30 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux eddie@codey:~$ jstest /dev/input/js0 Driver version is 2.1.0. Joystick (Logitech Logitech(R) Precision(TM) Gamepad) has 2 axes (X, Y) and 10 buttons (Trigger, ThumbBtn, ThumbBtn2, TopBtn, TopBtn2, PinkieBtn, BaseBtn, BaseBtn2, BaseBtn3, BaseBtn4). Testing ...
