Driver to support FANATEC input devices, in particular ForceFeedback of various wheel-bases

Oversteer: This utility is more advanced than the previous one and also allows you to change the range of the steering wheel, combine pedals, create profiles for games, test axis and buttons, and automatically modify the rule permissions to easily use wheel.
Logitech Wheels have a basic kernel driver that only supports constant force. Your problem is probbably because you didnt installed the driver module (look at the beggining of this post). G27 is a wheel that works great on Linux if you use new-lg4ff:https://github.com/berarma/new-lg4ff
;))) Remember to install Hid-fanatecFF first
Vdrift: Another veteran game, based on the Vamos physics engine. With almost 15 years behind it, the game allows players to drive lots of cars through detailed scenarios based on real circuits. The physics of the game are quite realistic as it corresponds to a simulator, and of course we will be able to use it with multiple devices such as keyboards, controllers and steering wheels, including the experimental support of Force Feedback. The project that looks in certain aspects like a commercial game, is stopped, with small corrections in the code as we can see in the page of the project. As we have heard from its main creator, Joe Venzon, it would be ideal if someone resume the project or make a fork to create something completely new. Hopefully this will happen and that this remarkable project will continue and not be forgotten. More info in the VDrift website and in his project page.
Speed Dreams: It is a fork of TORCS, and was born as the need to include many more functions to the latter. In Speed Dreams the menus would be completely redesigned, adding many more options and making them much more intuitive; the game acquired dynamic time, improvements in reflections, career mode, a new simulation mode and multi threading. Over time many more options were implemented, such as local multiplayer mode, Force Feedback, and of course more and better cars and tracks, a new and more powerfull graphic engine (OpenSceneGraph) among other things, making it a much more complete game than its predecessor. They recently they have presented version 2.2.3. You can also install it in AppImage and Flatpak format.
PyLinuxWheel: Logitech steering wheels (DFGT, DFPRO, G25, G27, G29 and G920) have good support in our system. With this utility we can easily change the degrees of rotation.
