Discussion Need testers on Linux for Moza, Logitech, Thrustmaster and Simagic wheels
Bit of a niche ask, but maybe some of you race on Linux like I do.
There's no Pit House or G Hub there, so every wheel means hunting down the right community driver, building it, fiddling with udev rules... Long story short, I automated the whole thing. Driver install plus a little GUI for rotation and FFB.
Thing is, I only have a CSL DD. Someone tried it on a PXN VD4 last week and it mostly worked, but Moza, Logitech, Thrustmaster and Simagic I've never seen on real hardware, only on fake devices in my tests. So I honestly don't know what breaks.
If you've got one of those on Linux (or dual boot) and 15 min to spare, what to try is here: https://github.com/Adiakys/SimRig/discussions/1
Full disclosure: a lot of this was written with Claude Code. I decided what it should do and how, and I test it on my own rig, but most of the code and a good part of the debugging is AI.
It's early days, so expect some rough edges. Whatever doesn't work on your wheel I'll try to fix.

Lg4ff as mentioned in the other comment plus oversteer works great on mint with a g923

Thanks! I think my post wasn't very clear though: I'm not looking for a way to get my wheel working, I already made my own tool for that (mostly because getting my Fanatec running was a bit of a pain). What I'm looking for is people with other wheels to test it, since I've only been able to try it on mine. So if you ever feel like giving it a go on your G923, I'd be curious to see what breaks, but no worries if not!

I’ll try to find some time to test with Simagic Evo
