Original question by @[email protected]

I never really see hardware lacking Linux support mentioned, which got me caught by surprise when a computer with a Broadcom network card couldn’t use the card. What other hardware don’t work with Linux?

The RailDriver train simulator controller only has official Windows support.

After reading the technical documentation from the makers, I cobbled together a "driver" that reads input messages then puts it out as a virtual device like an xbox controller.

With two translation layers, and with calibration required every time, I am able to play TrainSimWorld with it, because out of the box it can't seem to recognize it.
