Steering wheel
I found that the above comes in two variants, PS/PC and XBOX/PC. While the former is currently supported via an external driver (new-lg4ff), the latter has native kernel support. While I do expect to have a smoother experience with the native module, the custom driver claims to have a richer feature set than the native hid-logitech module (differences).

What should I expect from Force Feedback in American Truck Simulator?
Go to the game settings and adjust the FF levels. (Except if you're on Linux, you'll also need the experimental kernel module, as the stock one has only rudimentary FF support).

Sim racing on Linux/Steam Deck 2022 an update
The people Behind the logitech driver new-lg4ff most logitech wheels work fantastic now.

Please open-source ghub so I can make a software that's actually worth a shit.
On Linux there's libratbag/Piper for keyboards and mice and new-lg4ff/Oversteer for steering wheels, if you want to take a look at how they do some things or straight up just fork them and port to Windows.
- new-lg4ff 0.4.0 adds support for Logitech G923 PS/PC wheels
- Does steam input support steering wheels?

Linux gamers, what is making you stay?
You want this for your G29 if you haven't already installed it. I will admit that sim racing is a blind spot in Proton's support, but this should at least fix some of the wheel-related problems.

Any type of steering wheel to avoid?
In my opinion the best (community) support at the moment is from Logitech. I have one and it works very well with the new-lg4ff driver. I know the creator, u/berarma, and I know that the support is active. If you need an opinion on models, the G27 (second hand) or the G29 work great on Linux with new-lg4ff.

Thrustmaster FFB wheel on linux
I already found this but im such a noob to linux i can't complete the installation since i don't completely understand how i'm supposed to do it.

No space, so I installed my rig on my window! (details on comments)
I play Automobilista2, Dirt Rally 2.0, Dirt4, Dirt3, AC, BeamNG.drive . I use the hid-tmff2 wheel driver (dkms module). Protopedal script for pedal/device emulation. Or sometimes xboxdrv if protopedal doesn't fit my use case perfectly. Everything works fine(tm) but of course as is the Linux way, things do need fiddling sometimes. But I like the learning experience and treat it more like an additional hobby.

wth thrustmaster
Not sure if this will help or not. Linux kernel module for thrustmaster t300rs and t248

Does https://github.com/Kimplul/hid-tmff2 suppoprt the Thrustmaster T300 RS GT ?
My question is pretty much the title. Its obvious that https://github.com/Kimplul/hid-tmff2 supports the Thrustmasrter T300 RS but I am not sure about the GT version.
-
Are there currently any Direct Drive racing wheels for driving sim/gaming available that work on Linux?
Not completely true. There exists a driver for Thrustmaster T300: https://github.com/Kimplul/hid-tmff2 Other wheels I also have seen supported are some fanatec wheels: https://github.com/gotzl/hid-fanatecff
-
Interest in a Thrustmaster TMX Racing Wheel driver?
There are a Linux module driver for this Wheel (and others). You can find it here: https://github.com/Kimplul/hid-tmff2

How's T300RS on Linux currently?
I tried ACC and Raceroom on Linux (Manjaro)with the T300 am hid-tmff2 Module. ACC worked fine, but at first was having problems with the Wheel profiles. Had copied the Game settings from Windows, but after deleting everything and creating a new profile it was fine. Raceroom has a problem with the T300, Game starts fine but the Wheel pulls to the right and it's not drivable. Only without FFB. https://github.com/Kimplul/hid-tmff2/issues/39
