The PS3 and PS4 controllers are supposed to work natively in Linux, but I still prefer to use it instead of the native support. Of course, all the above is because QTSixA is no longer supported. To prevent sixad from being started at the boot, you have to execute: sudo systemctl disable sixadĪnd, when you're going to use it, execute: sudo sixad -s sixad and sixpairĮdit: Apparently and according to my tests, sixad automatically starts at the boot, but doesn't work at all when that happens, having to stop it an re-start it to make it to work. Because of that, you need to use the command line-based applications, i.e. Note: as far as I can tell, the GUI based application is no longer useful, at least to detect and connect controllers through Bluetooth. Sudo apt-key adv -keyserver -recv-keys 736E4F0B To do so, execute the following: sudo add-apt-repository "deb vivid main" On Ubuntu 15.10/16.04 and Linux Mint 18, you can still use the QtSixA PPA, but specifying "vivid" as the Ubuntu version (15.04), since that was the last officially supported version.
The main drawback is that the controller remains paired with your PlayStation, so when you disconnect the controller, it turns on the PlayStation. If you want to use it also via Bluetooth, prefer to make the Bluetooth setup first.Ĭonnecting the controller via USB just works™ out of the box.

There is nothing to install anymore on recent versions of Ubuntu, as Dualshock 3 (and 4 I believe) is natively supported by the Kernel, in both USB and Bluetooth. You can test the functionality of your controller through Jstest-gtk (install: sudo apt-get install jstest-gtk) If you press the Playstation button, the computer will receive its input and simulate it as an Xbox 360 controller, which should work the same as the playstation controller.start xboxdrv with sudo xboxdrv -detach-kernel-driver.

install xboxdrv from the Ubuntu Software Center or with sudo apt-get install xboxdrv.If it does not work automatically, this link might answer your question. I use another similar PnP controller, and it works without difficulty. It might be that the controller already works if you do this (You can test this with jstest-gtk as listed below).

I don't know how to connect the controller via bluetooth to your computer (if you even have a bluetooth receiver), so this answer focusses on usb connection. This is supplied with a PS3 device (it is the primary way to charge the controller).

Soren's promised working, native OS X HID code for the GCPad, but it has yet to appear in the main tree.You are able to connect the controller to the pc via usb cable. I don't understand why it was necessary to disable SDL support for the whole build in the first place if it was (is) still necessary for input in some parts of the system. You'll note (I believe) that the Wii remote plugin works perfectly, accepting input if set to Emulated Wiimote Mode from (for instance) a PS3 controller just not the GCPad. I have no idea why - there is no native Cocoa HID code for joysticks in place in the main source tree - and I think it was a horrible idea, as the osx builds are now crippled GCwise. For some unknown reason, the contributor "soren.jorvang" disabled SDL support (a framework used for input) on the Mac build in SVN revision 5886 back in July, thus disabling the use of a game controller or joystick. If you have any ideas or need more info, tell me. There are three options, but they all seem to be just for my keyboard. Under "GCPad" in the Devices drop-down, i'm not seeing the controller. It's quite simple since the bluetooth just recognizes the controller ) (Hopefully there are other people out there who use their PS3 controller like I did. I'm having trouble getting Dolphin to recognize my PS3 controller though. I just compiled Dolphin (r5929) onto my Macbook (Version 10.6.4) which was surprisingly easy. I'm new to all this technical stuff on this site so please help me if you can. (07-22-2010, 04:25 AM)imtheshocker35 Wrote: Glad to finally join the Dolphin community
