try this stuff, it helps to narrow the problem down:

Hey Creamy Goodness, thanks for the link.

I seem to be missing the input.x11 lines

Instead of:

input.x11_driver = 'joystick' (string)
input.x11_options.MapAxis1 = 'mode=relative axis=+2x deadzone=5000' (string)

I get:

linux.device_file = '/dev/input/event4' (string)
linux.hotplug_type = 2 (0x2) (int)

also for this: ~ $ dpkg -l *joystick*

I am missing this line:

ii joystick 20051019-5maemo0

Also when I type this in: ~ $ grep -i joy /tmp/Xorg.0.log

I get no response.

Thanks in advance guys.

No it wouldn't work with this. It needs to be an official Sixaxis (or Dualshock) controller.

I've been meaning to ask this a while: Is there any way to map the joysticks to work as keypress (up = w, left = a, up+left = w+a)... this would be really handy for a lot of things for me. I'm well aware how to remap buttons, but nothing has been said of the joysticks.

i read throw half the thread but i probably missed this information somewhere. i followed all the steps, my sixaxis paired and worked perfectly according to the key mappings the first time. however after disconnected, the second time it connects, all the key mappings r different.

like triangle n squares went to h, j, etc... and up down left right went to x, o, . and other keys. which is not what it was mapped, but i didn't change any thing. how do i fix this mapping problem?

I believe its because it is syncing as the second controller (application supports connecting of multiple controllers). I believe the simple fix is to reset the phone and try again. That said, I've never had it happen to me so I've no idea.

Got sixaxis working perfectly with mupen64 and blight_input plugin. Works as a regular gamepad (not mapping to keys) with sixaxis and all.

My issue is I want to also map keyboard keys to second controller, but the keys on PS3 controller also overlap with this... how can I remove keymaps for the controller completely? (And be able to reverse it easily) Is it simply a matter of 0'ing all the values in the config file? I've tried modifying the file before but it doesn't seem to do anything.. is a re-sync in between needed?
