Windows 7 and Vista users may have problems using Home edition OS's, especially with 64-bit editions.
Being able to run XP mode helps a lot. If you cannot, go here.




Installation/Config:

1. Ensure you have a N900, a genuine PS3 SixAxis controller (DS3 will work) and a USB cable to plug controller into your PC

2. On your N900, install "sixaxis-support" from extras repo

3. on PC install libusb-win32-filter-bin-0.1.10.1 (32-Bit Machines ONLY)
use this version (you may try newest version but Im unsure if it works)
64 BIT USERS GO HERE WARNING: THIS CAN CAUSE PROBLEMS, DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK

4. on PC install GlovePie
use this version (you may try newest version but Im unsure if it works)

5. on PC open file in notepad:
X:/*GlovePie Directory*/SixaxisScripts/n900.pie

6. go to this section:

sixaxis.BluetoothMAC = "xx:xx"

and replace the xx:xx with your phones Bluetooth address
(to find, go to: settings > general > about product)

7. connect SixAxis controller to PC

8. on PC, run GlovePie

9. Go to File > Open > X:/*GlovePie Directory*/SixaxisScripts/n900.pie

10. click the "Run >" button, wait a few seconds then press the controllers Connect button a few times

11. close GlovePie and disconnect controller





Usage:

1. Activate Bluetooth on N900 (Visible: Yes)
2. Press PS button on controller
3. Wait for the SixAxis light to stop flashing
4. To disconnect, turn off Bluetooth on phone

Connection Problems?:

add "input" back into the disabled modules in:

/etc/bluetooth/main.conf

stop/start bluetooth.
Note: doesn't work with "input" missing.





Create your own Custom button configuration:

To configure SixAxis buttons, on N900 edit:
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/20-x11-sony-sixaxis.fdi

In this file, each group has the current set keys shown in descending order (top > bottom). in the section shown below, the top line is for the "select" button. to change the button, change the key number (key=??) which is highlighted in red. to find which key number to use, refer to "N900 X11 keycodes" below.


N900 X11 keycodes (US layout):

The codes below relate to the N900 keyboard buttons.
Each line represents the lines of keys.

• 37 = Ctrl/Sym
• ?? = Fn
• 50 = Shift
• 43 = H
• and so on...

To determine controller buttons order:

pair controlller, then in xterm as root, type:

jstest /dev/input/js0





Re-connect SixAxis to PS3:

Connect controller to the PS3 with the USB cable and press the PS button to pair them. If this doesnt work, press the reset button on the controller and repeat:
