Do you have any advice for me, cant get the ps3 control to connect my n900. i have tried with ubuntu live cd "sixpair" and it changes the address ok, then i try to connect my n900 bluetooth icon turns blue but still ps3 blinks all the 4 lights and it does nothing else bluetooth turns white again... i think i have the chinese copy version of the sixaxis controller, when i plug it back to usb and run sixpair the current bluetooth master is 00:00:00:00:00:00. I have tried reflash my n900 and i installed only sixaxis_support nothing else and still the same... its getting little frustrating, i reeeeaally want this to work!!

Same problem happened to me, the controller was counterfeit. Does your controller work with a PS3 ?

copy controllers will (most likely) work with ps3, but will NOT work with this

alternative installation

I dont have PS3

Just bought this for n900, i think its fake... It looks exactly the same they sell in dealextreme.com, and the finishing quality isn't so good i think... Im gonna return it to seller, and maybe go to store and pick one from there.

Yes!!! Got this to work, after i went to local supermarket ("kärkkäinen") and bought a real SONY sixaxis controller for 60€

Now i can confirm that the "fake" PS3 controllers dont work with n900. Im glad i got it to work and now i can youse it with my pc too, allready gave a shot with flatout 2...works fine with force feedback!!!
