Re: Using PS3 SixAxis controller with N900
 
Smoku, I mentioned this in the uae4all thread, not sure if you missed it so I will mention it here too.
While my sixaxis is paired and communicating with my N900 the CPU clock speed on the N900 rarely drops below 600mhz (witnessed using conky). As soon as I disconnected the sixaxis from the N900 the CPU clock speed drops back down 250mhz. Is there anything that can be done about this or is it a maemo problem?
I figure if simply pairing the sixaxis and N900 results in a 600mhz clock speed it must also have a negative impact on emulator performance?

I read in the overclocking thread that according to Nokia, 600mhz is regarded as overclocking the cpu.

Thanks

You have a bluetooth device connected that is constantly reporting its axes and buttons state. This has the effect of constantly waking processor from sleep. The event processing takes very little CPU though.

Your problem is related to how X11 detects devices. It looks through the HAL device list looking for input.x11_driver entries which tells X11 which driver to load for the device and input.x11_options which gives the options to the driver.

Of course HAL does not know all possible hardware and you need to give it hints. This is what /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/20-x11-sony-sixaxis.fdi file is for. Its content should be merged to the device info once SIXAXIS connects.
<match key="input.product" contains="PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller">
<merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">joystick</merge>

I don't know why your HAL does not merge this information.
You may try running HAL in verbose mode. See BUGS AND DEBUGGING section of man hald.


Second - you cannot. maemo.org cleans old versions from repositories. You need to get the source package and build it. Source packages are not cleaned.

Now for my question: I am trying to get Vice to work with the sixaxis, and I am facing a problem someone else also had (see Vice thread): some keys and the controller itself (accelerometer) seem to make Vice show the menu. Most notably the right-cursor and the O key do this. The accelerometer actually works as a mouse, moving up/down through the menu.
First connected controller has mouse emulation with left stick and mouse wheels emulation with right stick enabled.

If you don't want this, remove the lines in the <!-- Main Axis. Left=Mouse; Right=Scroll --> section.

Thanks for all the votes.
But you also need to vote sixad - without it I cannot promote sixaxis-support to Extras.

Hello all.

I got a ps3 controller off ebay....instead of a PS logo on the front...it has a P3...the model number is: YT-9014A1.

Check out the pictures here and here

I keep trying to get this thing to work....with even the wiki information.

Do I have to buy the $54 dollar controller?

Run INF Wizard.exe

1) Plug in your PS3 Controller, click next
What is a INF Wizard??????

I've managed to get sixaxis compiled and entered in the bluetooth address of my N900 into my DS3 controller. I've also installed sixaxisd via the green install button on the first post.

I can press the PS button on the DS3, the 4 LED's flash and the bluetooth icon on my N900 turns blue.

This is as far as it gets, no /dev/event/js0 appears and the bluetooth icon on the N900 turns back to normal after about 30 seconds.

I've checked that sixaxisd is running, I'm kinda of annoyed that it's not working. Any ideas what I can try next?
