I am away from the machine for the nect couple of weeks, so cannot test it. Luckly it is a trial version of the lightburn, so at least i can go a different route.
The wierd part to me was that when i set it up as the cnc machine, the axis start workimg properly with exception of them being reversed. So it is clearly a bug somewhere in a lightburn. And everything else except for jogging works perfectly. It cuts properly, gcode commands on the console move laser in the right direction. It is just silly jogging that is wrong.
looks like its a bug in core 2.0.0.2
rolled back to version 2.0.0.0 and its back working fine
happy to liaise with dev to resolve if needed
I have been using G10 L2 P1 Xnn Ynn Znn consistently
My new CNC replacement controller board was wonky, but changing parameters straightened it out. It is best to go through the Device settings window rather than do it Console style.
In the device settings the checkbox that switches on the “cnc mode” also states that it is for cnc machines that have the home at top right. So that explains the reversed axles. I tried it just as experiment to see if it will fix the movement and it did. Instead of joggin all the way to top right when you single click the jogging button, it moves by 10mm as required.

As I suggested, if you would like to share more details to get more help, please email support@lightburnsoftware.com - feel free to include videos of the behavior and detailing what does and doesn’t work in 2.0.0 and 2.0.02, and if you can send us a device configuration bundle (File->Bundles->Export Bundle, select only the device configuration), that will help sort out your issues and track down the bug ASAP.
