Hi everyone,

I’m having a frustrating issue with my Logitech G29 on Arch Linux (kernel 6.16.10-arch1-1, KDE Plasma 6). I’ve spent quite a while trying to get it to work properly, but it still isn’t being detected correctly in games like ATS, ETS2, or Oversteer. I’m hoping someone in the community can help me debug this. I asked chatgpt for some advice, but nothing worked

Setup / Hardware:

Logitech G29 (USB)

Arch Linux, kernel 6.16.10-arch1-1

Recently bought a Logitech mouse + keyboard (Unifying receiver), but G29 worked normally before this

Using Oversteer / ATS for testing

Problem:

Nothing detects the wheel at all (Oversteer, ATS, ETS2) (lsusb sees the decided tho).

dmesg | grep -i logitech always shows it as hid-generic, never hid-lg4ff or hid-logitech.

Force feedback works properly in games once the wheel is initialized manually (e.g., unplug/replug).

What I’ve tried so far:

1. Checked if the device is recognized via lsusb:

lsusb | grep Logitech Bus 003 Device 005: ID 046d:c260 Logitech, Inc. G29 Driving Force Racing Wheel

1. Checked kernel messages:

dmesg | grep -i logitech

1. Tried removing conflicting modules (hid_logitech_hidpp, hid_logitech_dj):

sudo modprobe -r hid_logitech_hidpp hid_logitech_dj sudo modprobe hid-logitech

got "modprobe: FATAL: Module hid_logitech_ff not found"

1. Tried hid-lg4ff and hid-logitech-g29 — modules not found.

2. Installed DKMS module new-lg4ff-dkms-git from AUR:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/new-lg4ff-dkms-git.git cd new-lg4ff-dkms-git makepkg -si

dkms status shows:

new-lg4ff/0.3.3.r42.g2092db1, 6.16.10-arch1-1, x86_64: installed (Original modules exist)

The module file exists in:

/lib/modules/6.16.10-arch1-1/updates/dkms/hid-logitech.ko.zst

1. Tried loading the module manually:

sudo modprobe hid-logitech

dmesg still shows hid-generic for the G29.

1. Tried creating /etc/modprobe.d/g29-fix.conf to blacklist hid_generic:

blacklist hid_generic

modprobe -r hid_generic fails: "FATAL: Module hid_generic is builtin"

1. Tried adding udev rule to force module load:

/etc/udev/rules.d/99-logitech-wheel.rules SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="046d", ATTRS{idProduct}=="c260", RUN+="/usr/bin/modprobe hid-logitech" sudo udevadm control --reload-rules sudo udevadm trigger

Still no luck — dmesg shows hid-generic only.

1. I’ve also unplugged/replugged the wheel multiple times, restarted Oversteer, restarted the PC… sometimes it partially works, but detection is inconsistent.

Goal:

Have the wheel consistently detected by Linux as G29 with force feedback support.

Avoid having to unplug/replug every time.

Other info:

I suspect it may have something to do with recently adding Logitech mouse/keyboard, but it usually worked fine.

I understand that hid-generic is built into the kernel, so I can’t remove it.

Force feedback seems to work when the wheel is manually initialized, so driver is partially functional.

Outputs for reference:

dkms status

new-lg4ff/0.3.3.r42.g2092db1, 6.16.10-arch1-1, x86_64: installed (Original modules exist)

ls /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/updates/dkms/

hid-logitech.ko.zst

lsusb | grep Logitech

Bus 003 Device 005: ID 046d:c24f Logitech, Inc. G29 Driving Force Racing Wheel

dmesg | grep -i logitech

[only shows hid-generic]

Additional info:

I used the steering wheel on my previous pc with windows 10 on it, everytime when booting the wheel spinned around 2 times and then it "locked" (it was tough to spin the wheel), on my current pc when booting the wheel just kinda randomly spins around and after boot it's free. But ever since the wheel stopped working it started spinning while booting just like it did with the old pc, just with some lights on

I recently got a new Logitech mouse and keyboard, the wheel worked fine for a couple days, but today nothing detects it

Thanks in advance for any help! Really appreciate any guidance from someone who’s gotten G29 fully working on Arch Linux with newer kernels.

Anyone else experiencing similar issues after Steam Client updated (I got it on 04-10) from version 1757650573 to 1759461205? Even a full clean re-install refuses to launch for me.

Up till last Friday 03-10, CP2077 was running fine (modded)
This last Monday, I had updating 4 mods, it refused to launch then. Short black screen, then back to desktop with the PID hanging needing manual stopping.
The PROTON_LOG, had it enabled, was not updated and Steam terminal showing only the following output out of the ordinary:

ATTENTION: default value of option vk_x11_override_min_image_count overridden by environment. (several entries) pid 106337 != 106336, skipping destruction (fork without exec?) Game Recording - game stopped [gameid=1091500] Removing process 107013 for gameID 1091500 (several processes)

Rolling back the 4 mod updates made it launch again. Then tested each updated mod to find a culptris and weirdly got all 4 working, multiple restarts of CP2077 and it loading save games fine.
This was the state late Monday until today.

Today again CP did not launch, same black screen back to desktop. Same output from Steam in terminal.
Same rolling back mods making CP launch, only ones, updating each mod and testing it did not work. Checked steam-1091500.log to my shock the log file size was 5.5Gb!

The following was being spammed:

Decided to regenerate CyberPunk's Prefix, Purge all mods and manually remove all core mods (RedExt/ArchiveXL/Codeware/CET). Remove launch arguments and setting Proton Experimental. Essentially going back to "stock Cyberpunk state".
Cyberpunk now refused to launch, no matter Proton version Experimental/GE-Proton. On Proton change I regenerated the Prefix. I t gets to the Red Launcher, press play, black screen then back to desktop Red Launcher hangs. Steam terminal output showing the entry I mentioned above.

The did a complete clean install.
CP2077 should run and it had when I first installed it with Proton Experimental, out of the box. Now it does not, Red Launcher same issue as above.

I am at a complete loss to be honest here. Anything I am overlooking?

ProtonPlus: Compatibility Tools Manager v0.5.13 released https://playingtux.com/articles/protonplus-compatibility-tools-manager-v0513-released?lang=en #Linux #Gaming #LinuxGaming

Soo I’m building a new PC and I’m trying to get ahead of a possible speed bump. My new build has a Ryzen 9600X (has iGPU) and a Radeon 9060 XT. Is there a way to select a specific chipset whenever I’m playing games on Steam? Is there maybe like a graphical tool or command on Linux that allows me to force every Steam game to use my discrete GPU rather than the iGPU?

I know on Windows you can force an app/game to use the discrete GPU in the settings or in the AMD Adrenalin app. Just wondering if we have something similar.

Yes. Just install MSVC using scripts from https://github.com/mstorsjo/msvc-wine.git and build Optiscaler via wine. It just works.

Here is a simple script (you need to accept MS license on the first run)

#!/bin/bash set -euo pipefail MSVC_WINE_REPO="https://github.com/mstorsjo/msvc-wine.git" OPTISCALER_REPO="https://github.com/optiscaler/OptiScaler.git" # Increase up to your cpu's thread count for faster build. # Reduce in case of build errors.

So I have gave Microsoft a chance because one product, Xbox. I love Xbox been my childhood I met my best friends on there which would prevent me from Linux, I mainly use Xbox to talk to my friends in party and gamepass so after the announcement on $30 a month I can’t do it no more, so I’m going to use Linux, I use Linux when I was 13 (I’m 27) and a lot changed I remember when wine was like 1.7 and 1.8 and now you can do almost everything on Linux,

and before I migrate I need to ask how do I import my edge sign in like Gmail, YouTube etc. why I ask, because I lost my phone and it had passkey and I can’t have access my Gmail with out passkey

Building out my desk and looking for a daily driver that’s great for typing and some gaming. I’m torn on size (TKL vs 75% vs 65%) and switches (linear vs tactile), so real-world picks would help.

Priorities: hotswap sockets, good stabilizers out of the box (or easy to tune), PBT keycaps, gasket or at least decent dampening, wireless (BT/2.4 GHz) with USB-C, and VIA/QMK or solid remapping software. Bonus: south-facing LEDs, knob, long battery, and Mac/Windows toggle.

Budget tiers I’m considering: $100–$200

If you love yours, please share: model/size, switches, any mods (tape/PE foam/lube), firmware quirks, and how it holds up for long sessions. Also open to barebones + switch/keycap combos if that’s better bang for buck. Thanks!

Ahoy,

Just installed Mint 22.2, still trying to figure everything out, quite the learning-curve. My previous OS was Windows 7 & I had a 2nd SSD (samsung evo 1tb) which I installed Steam and the games on. I have the drive connected now, but not sure what I should do.

Should I try to re-install Steam onto the Samsung evo, maybe try 'repair' that installation? or am I having to delete the old steam folder and reinstall a new Linux-Steam version, then somehow try verify the existing installed games?

I also used 'Epic Games Launcher' & 'Origin' on that drive too & a couple of non-launcher games, like Guild Wars 2.

Or maybe it's best to backup the profiles of each game and wipe the drive, start fresh?

I am using a Dell Precision 7530 Laptop with an NVIDIA Quadro P2000 GPU. I am also a law student so tech is not my "field", but I love to discuss about it from time to time especially since I love gaming. I'm pretty much tired of Windows how slow it is. I don't want to quit gaming and I was always told (at least in the past) that gaming on Linux is horrendous. Recently however it seems that this "idea" has changed significantly especially due to Valve/Steam launching steamdeck and promoting games to be allowed on SteamOS which is also Linux.

And that's the thing. I am someone who likes to try various stuff like maybe Blender, Unity etc, but more importantly I like to game and write a lot since that is part of the legal profession (And yes somehow just using Microsoft Word has been a painful experience for me). Knowing all that, should I migrate? And to which distro? Is it possible to do so without losing data or any games I have installed? (I have a horrendously slow wifi so reinstalling everything is gonna take time. Of course its just laziness speaking but it'd be a great help).

Let’s start from the beginning. A couple of years ago, I started jumping from Windows to Linux. It was cool, but I ran into some issues—mainly with NVIDIA and some lag in games—so I kept going back to Windows 10. (I hate Windows 11; maybe the next version will be better.)

My distro-hopping experience wasn't great, but I eventually settled on CachyOS. It’s simple and really user-friendly. Even though I still have a few issues with Bluetooth (maybe it’s my WiFi/Bluetooth stick or KDE—I haven’t had problem on other desktop environment),

I wanted to play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered, but since it’s Windows-only, I shrunk one of my drives and installed Windows 11. Big mistake. It was slow, bloated, and the constant updates drove me crazy—I deleted it after 10 minutes. (I ended up pirating the game just to be able to play it on Linux. I own the game, though.)

Even with a few bugs (mostly related to my NVIDIA GPU), I feel better using Linux. I’ve been on it for 6 months now, and most games run just fine. My only ongoing issue is with Bluetooth. If anyone has a solution, feel free to leave a comment.

For the Bluetooth to work with my headphones i need to restart the Bluetooth.service ones or twice

Have a nice day! 😃

I'm thinking about switching from Windows 10 to a Linux distro that feels more like Windows. Does anyone play Football Manager on Linux? What's the experience like? And does Steam's Proton actually work well? I really want to switch, but I'm worried I won't be able to play my Steam games, like CK3 and FM.
