My 12 year old son has been using our old Asus laptop to play SuperTuxKart on Zorin 9 OS using a USB attached GXT 27 Steering Wheel.
It works superbly and it's great! So, now I would like to play it myself on my newer Asus laptop using the installed LL2.8 OS...
but there's a glitch.
The steering wheel is apparently not recognised as a device (not listed), under SuperTuxKart/Options/Controls.
Only 'Keyboard 0' is listed as a device.
Within SuperTuxKart Controls I clicked on 'Add a Device' and the advice given was:
"To add a new gamepad/joystick device, simply start SuperTuxKart with it connected and it will appear in the list"
Well I tried that advice but it still doesn't work, even after several reboots.
Any help with this much appreciated.
Many thanks
Mike
