Logitech PRO RACING WHEEL

[Helge102]

I'm thinking about buying a Logitech PRO RACING WHEEL.
Will it work with new-lg4ff?
I don't think anyone can say that due to the lack of a test device, but maybe there was already a successful test.

It won't work with new-lg4ff. If it will work in some other way or how hard would it be to make it work, I don't know.

I assumed that.
The device is still very new on the market. I'll just wait and see then.

It's new, but Logitech were generally linux friendly in the past. It's Logitech, so it will be popular for sure and has great compatiblity with games (like all their previous wheels) Unlike their previous wheels, this one is really awesome, with no potentiometers, but hall sensors and load cell. And potentiometers were the only thing failing in G29 and newer wheels, so this one is probably also designed to last (or we can hope so). So it's definitely different device, probably using different communication protocols. And this one has built-in USB-hub (3* usb-A ports) for other accesories (like pedals, shifter, handbrake, etc), unlike some proprietary connectors (ans some bullshit 'hubs', like Fanatec). @berarma: BTW, why new-lg4ff is not upstreamed, if it's mostly ready? You want to merge it with standard logitech-hid firstst (they are colliding now, right, and can not be installed at the same time?) or upstream doesn't like your code, because floating points operations or something?

I foresee a negative response. It's an important change that adds some complexity to a previously very simple driver. And the authors of the current driver haven't expressed good feelings about it.
