okay so i have a G25 and if necessary i may install windows... but i would like to know if there is a way to get the G25 working under ubuntu(8.04, 32 bit)? LFS runs great but the G25... man... that's a different story lol... perhaps tehre is a driver that i have missed somewhere along the way?

please help, thanks

afaik you wont get FFB on Linux via WINE.

If i were you i'f get XP & nLite an make a gaming only OS.

ok, so yea sounds like i'm gonna be putting vista (i have the OS disc, i just don't particularly care for windows lol i'm a linux guy) on it and getting it up as my "gaming" operating system

wouldn't xp be better system for gaming than vista?

Yes it would no doubt be better but he probably doesn't have Windows XP and doesn't want to go and pay for it?

lol ya i have vista, vista runs better for me (i know, weird) but yea.. look at my signature... it doesnt make a difference in lfs lol, is all that matters is that i have it running now so everyone's happy lol

lol!

Some info. I didn't test it, but if you get it working please let us know

Sorry for taking post up...

But I would really like to have my G25 work in Ubuntu too, I do have XP in my computer, but while LFS works fine in Wine, I would like to play LFS in Ubuntu with my wheel.

I have a feeling that we don't have to wait that long anymore...

Would be pretty awesome to dump Windows at home forever
