Many controls are inactive

[ccoupe]

I'm attempting to use Ubuntu 24.04 and a Logitech 923 Wheel. Oversteer launches fine and the brake , throttle pedals, and wheel animate but I can't set any of the Controls in the center panel like Rotation range or any of the Force Feedback settings.

$ oversteer --debug

I guess it's the directory /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-4/1-4:1.0/0003:046D:C266.0002 not having enough permissions.

It's the path in the line DEBUG:root:check_permissions: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-4/1-4:1.0/0003:046D:C266.0002 of the debug log.

Can you check the permission for that directory?

$ ls -ld /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-4/1-4:1.0/0003:046D:C266.0002

Have you installed new-lg4ff?

Have you installed new-lg4ff?

That was it. Problem solved. Face Palm for me.
