puffo, i have the exact same symptoms as you... have you made any progress? Smoku, we're stuck! Can you help us?

jstest /dev/input/js0 -- does show the input from the PS3 controller but none of the commands from the PS3 appear to make it any further then that, -- no keyboard mappings at least.
Check whether you have /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/x11-sony-sixaxis.fdi in place on your N900. If so, do a reboot and try again.
P.S. Thanks for sharing your experience and tips. I updated the guide.

If you haven't already program the PS3 controller with your N900's bluetooth MAC Address (must do this from a desktop PC running linux, or a VM that supports device pass through to a linux vm - VMware Workstation 7 with Debian worked perfectly for me)
This is something Google found for me. I have no Windows, so I cannot check it myself.

I have the was already rebooting, saw that your update was now available, installed it.
The files do exist - so I rebooted again (just to be safe after the update)
PS3 controller connects quickly, but no mapped keys -- I am testing in the x-term window to see if any of the PS3 keys type the letters - is that acceptable for testing ?

is there any process (ps -ef | grep ????) that I can look for to see if the key-mapper is running ? or something I can test with ?
At this point I am ready to recovery-flash the n900, restore backup, and try your latest package to see if it works properly...
Side note -- is your installer/package optified ?

edit: had to manually update kernels but still cant install sixaxis-support
sixaxis-support breaks 3rd party package policy....
