Re: Wiicontrol Application for Maemo
 

Do you have a genuine Wii remote or a knockoff/third-party one?

Re: Wiicontrol Application for Maemo
 

Absolutely genuine, but wiicontroll app close itself even if i dont touch any botton. It starts then after 3-4 seconds it closes automatically...

Re: Wiicontrol Application for Maemo
 

same here.....could it be the new firmware cos the comments about wiicontrol before the new firmware are good and the newer comments are about the error, so it could be the firmware

Re: Wiicontrol Application for Maemo
 

Hi, i have the same error, wiicontrol close when is opened.
I have a n900, with maemo 3.2. Wiicontrol 1.0.

The first problem is installing, because a error dependency with maemo-select-menu-location, but i installer in xterminal and the error is not presented.

if i run wiicontrol in the terminal, the error is:

bluetooth.btcommon.BluetoothError: (22, 'Invalid Argument')

Thanks

Re: Wiicontrol Application for Maemo
 

Im getting the same error as you

Re: Wiicontrol Application for Maemo
 

I'm in the same boat, closes after 7secs. I have tried two official wiimotes but no luck.

Now I'm not too wise when it comes to maemo but would it be possible to reinstall the bluetooth drivers on the N900?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Wiicontrol Application for Maemo
 

Just got the wiimote working. You need the following packages installed, some of which just appeared on garage:

bluez 4.60-0maemo1+0m5
libbluetooth3 4.60-0maemo1+0m5
python-bluez 0.18-1maemo1

Install these, and remove/store any old bluetooth settings:
sudo gainroot
stop bluetoothd
mv /var/lib/bluetooth/* /home/user/bluetooth-old
start bluetoothd

Now try wiicontrol. I don't have my goal game stuff working, but + and - on the wiimote affect volume, which is a start!

Synchronization seems to be an issue... once the wiimote goes to sleep, wiicontrol dies. Then my wiimote gets unresponsive unti I take the batteries out for a while and try to resync. Makes the app an exercise in frustration... little steps I suppose.
