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.

Fix jscal detecting steering wheel range wrong?
So, I'm basically trying to make my Thrustmaster TMX Pro work under Fedora 36. I already tried using [tmdrv](https://github.com/her001/tmdrv) with [scarabuto's T150 driver](https://github.com/scarburato/t150_driver) and [emtek995's TMX / TMX Pro driver](https://github.com/emtek995/TMX-driver). With both ways nearly everything is workig except the calibration with jscal, which shows the Axis to be about 30000, instead of the correct 60000 large. As a result I have a weird deadzone of about 20° in every direction from the center. In Windows everything works fine.
