Thanks for trying to help, I changed the severity to major, because this thing
affects MANY games and those games are unplayable, basically you can't use
those programs, because of this bug. I hope it's ok in this way.

I forgot to mention in my first post, but on my system nothing is recognised as
gamepad/joy, because I don't have any. And in dev/input/ there is no js*,
nothing, so as far as I know that indicate that nothing is recognised as
joy/gamepad. Because of this, that is why I think it has something in Wine.

All and every game that using the Unity-engine is affected with this bug.
In Unity-engine games the mouse doing this strange down-right movement nonstop.

I have this issue in Fallout New Vegas too, this game using the
Gamebryo-engine, but in FalloutNV it occurs randomly. The mouse sometimes
working normally, but randomly it moves or more like jumps a bit into the
down-right directon, and then the mouse works fine again. Under Windows I don't
have this problem, but I no longer using that OS.
Like I mentioned I have a very old PC, and even the newer Ububtu is performing
very badly on my PC. I used Ubuntu from 2006 until 2010 but after that it works
slowly, so I swithed, and I find out that the Arch-based Manjaro is the best
for my comnputer, and I think I stick into that OS.

I mostly try out and play with many-many small early access games that using
who-knows-what game-engines or using their own thing. But I think this is a bit
irrelevant, because those games are in development, and hopefully they fixed.

I also run into this bug in some old (form the early 2000s) games, mostly
strategy and RPG games. But I think we can skip those too, because maybe just
one or two people play those games and maybe just once in every few years (like
myself), and not that sever this bug on those games, because most of them are
turn-based so the mouse drifting is just an annoying thing, and not made those
games unplayable.

I think the Wine developers can focus on newer games, and I think the best
start is look for any of the Unity-engine games or Gamebryo games.
(At least the games that I tried to play recently using one of those engines)
I think if the Wine devs can fix this bug in any of those games, hopefully it
fix it for every other games too.

In the game settings anything releated to gampads or joysticks are ALWAYS
"greyed out" or can not be accessed for me, because I don't have any, so there
is nothing that I can disable. Or at least I never run into any game, that
producing this bug, that I can change any setting releated to gamad/joystick.
