Hi thanks Matlo

I have a eee PC (netbook)with lubuntu 14.4 installed
The ds4 is plugged into the eee pc (turned off)
The usb ttl is plugged Into the eee PCs
The Logitech g27 is plugged Into the eee PCs

The Teensy 2.0 board is plugged into the ps4
I have tried turning on eee PC then turning on the ps4 with the button on the front
Then running Gimx click start then press the button mapped to ps on the g27
No response

I also have a laptop with dual boot Ubuntu 14.4 and Windows 7

With Ubuntu it's the same have to run Gimx twice

I have tried with 3 different usb adaptors all the same must be something I'm missing in Ubuntu lubuntu as I'm not great on Linux any help would be great

Please post the output of the dmesg command typed just after reproducing the issue.

Hi Matio thanks for your reply
Ok I've run dmesg
I ran it the first time I clicked start from Gimx
Pastebin http://pastebin.com/iEtntkUG

Then pressed shift esc
Then clicked start again
Didn't press any buttons on the g27
Ran dmesg again
Pastebin http://pastebin.com/dBZjddKk

Then pressed the ps button on the g27
Ran dmesg again

Hi Matio
Did you have any ideas?
It looks like the dual shock it's recognised till Gimx has been run once?
Thanks for your time

It seems the G27 is not correctly detected the first time.

It always works fine
If I run Gimx then press shift escape
Then run it again

Do I need any software for Logitech wheel in Ubuntu?

No, there is no need for any software.
I think there is a bug.

Please try this package:
http://gimx.fr/download/1d8eb064a39adb5 ... _amd64.deb

It may fix the issue. It's based on the source code that will be used for GIMX 6.
