(bazzite)can't install steering wheel drivers
I was trying to install drivers for my steering wheel using this git repo (https://github.com/Kimplul/hid-tmff2?tab=readme-ov-file), but every time I try to sudo yum, it throws an error message leading to documentation page (which is no help at all). Am I doing something wrong? Isn't Bazzite Fedora based?

I think you'll need to use rpm-ostree, since this is an atomic Fedora distro
https://docs.bazzite.gg/Installing_and_Managing_Software/rpm-ostree/
rpm-ostree - Bazzite Documentation
rpm-ostree is Fedora's enterprise tool for managing immutable operating system updates.
Also it's kind of tricky to use non-packaged kernel modules on Bazzite
you cannot install dkms via rpm-ostree. I don't know the current status, but it is being looked at for inclusion https://discord.com/channels/1072614816579063828/1087140957096517672/1342910516082901133

I tried both dkms and manual install, but it throws errors such as "cannot create file: read-only file system". Discord community of that distro is no help.
mb, dkms via rpm-ostree is not possible. ig you have to wait for it to be included, as termdisc said
