T150 USB product string missing about t150_driver HOT 2 CLOSED

It turns out that the value is missing from the Linux USB ID database.

Website:
http://www.linux-usb.org/usb-ids.html

File on Ubuntu:
/var/lib/usbutils/usb.ids

I will try editing usb.ids and, if it works, I will submit the ID for review to linux-usb.org

https://gist.github.com/m4ver1Kc/90462139e5ab0ab5e11e42d6779b5289 indicates that the product should be "Thrustmaster T150RS"

I will see if I can read a value from a Windows computer as well, just to be sure.

edit. Info on fetching latest database from the web: https://opensource.com/article/20/8/usb-id-repository

from t150_driver.

Turns out that the linux-usb.org webpage is mostly broken, but it seems that the usb.ids list still gets updated. I will try to send a patch to the robot, but I'm not sure if one must be registered first, somehow.

USB ids are nowadays read from "hwdb" in systemd, but they seem to fetch the USB IDs from the usb.ids file.

I added a local hwdb entry in this way (Ubuntu 20.04):
/etc/udev/hwdb.d/90-thrustmaster-t150.hwdb

usb:v044FpB677*
 ID_MODEL_FROM_DATABASE=T150 Racing Wheel

sudo systemd-hwdb update

lsusb -d 044f:b677
Bus 001 Device 101: ID 044f:b677 ThrustMaster, Inc. T150 Racing Wheel

lsusb -d 044f:b677 -v
  idVendor           0x044f ThrustMaster, Inc.
  idProduct          0xb677 T150 Racing Wheel

Edit: It did not make the wheel function in my Steam/proton games.

Edit: I have made a PR on SDL_GameControllerDB for a config that makes the wheel be visible as XInput in wine. (Mapping a controller in Steam also does this). Does not fix the mentioned games though. mdqinc/SDL_GameControllerDB#465
