What have you tried to do?
In chronological order. The long version.
You did what, then what happened, then you did what, then what happened, etc etc…

Right, we are getting somewhere…
You are on Linux… That should have been in the first post :smiley:
I don’t run Linux. I like my convenience, but you are in the right place.
Just change the name of the thread to add it’s on Linux and there will be guys helping you in no time.

Even though i got F1 2018 going my fps was even lower than with win10 so i have to quit ubuntu and try my luck elsewhere :frowning: I so wanted to keep it for longer …

That’s not uncommon, even when Linux is supported the time spent testing and tuning is often less than for the Windows equivalent. Occasionally somethings will work better.

With regards to any controllers on Linux that are not obviously a joystick e.g. 2 axis and 2-4 buttons you can have permissions issues e.g. a normal user was denied access to the device. I found running X-Plane on Linux with a full flight-stick, throttle and rudder pedals needed some tweaking to get everything working properly - and this was easier on some distributions than others e.g. not to difficult on Ubuntu & Mint but a PITA elsewhere.

I’ve no idea if the issues with your wheel are similar, but if they are you might find this (old) link informative: https://developer.x-plane.com/2012/09/linux-joystick-permissions/
