[Bug 124743] Re: Sony Sixaxis Controller does not work over bluetooth

 

Following on from the work of previous posters, I've built a version
with the SIXAXIS pairing patch for Trusty and uploaded it to a ppa at
https://launchpad.net/~nadia-xy/+archive/ppa. Hopefully if/when Ubuntu
moves to Bluez 5 this won't be an issue anymore as Bluez 5 appears to
support this in recent versions without patching.

Title:
  Sony Sixaxis Controller does not work over bluetooth

Status in Ubuntu PS3 Port:
  New
Status in “bluez” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Sixaxis controller has limited functionality as a USB device (no
  motion sensor axis support) but is not able to pair and be recognized
  from Feisty install.  External tools are needed to allow it to pair,
  but kernel support may also be required.
