It can connect PS3 hardware +(Sixaxis/DualShock3 and Keypads) to a Linux-compatible machine. +Currently it supports Sixaxis buttons, axis, accelerometers and LEDs. + +Some patches thankfully taken from https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qtsixa/. + +Notes: + +Be sure you are using a Bluetooth dongle with a HCI version higher than 1.1 +by using `hciconfig default version | grep HCI`. + +Please note that due to the behaviour of "sixpair" and a replaced "hidd", +the stock Bluetooth stack is getting disabled while running and no other +Bluetooth devices will work, until the "replaced" hidd is disabled again +from `sh /etc/rc.d/rc.sixad stop`. + +In case something like `kdesu` is not installed, you need to run `qtsixa` +with root rights. + +Steps: + +- connect your device through USB +- start "qtsixa" and pair your device (Tasks->Pair Device to PC) +- start "sixad" by `sh /etc/rc.d/rc.sixad start` +- press the PS button on your controller + +Pairing is just needed once. If wanted, you can add rc.sixad to your +rc.local and pressing the PS button again after a reboot without any +further interaction. |
