@Justin: It's not a hardware problem. I have three different wiimotes, no one works out of the box. They work in another machine with the last ubuntu version before intrepid. Exactly the same hardware. The same computer, the same bluez dongle, with Intrepid stoping to work when updated. I go to another machine, and they work fine.
And I'm not the only person that has this problem, a lot of people have it too, like Markus, you can look at other bluez bug reports they have exactly the same problem. Indeed, using the Markus trick makes the wiimote to connect and work fine. The trick is to do "sudo hcitool cc 00:19:1D:B7:D7:10" exactly at the same time it tries to connect. When I say wmgui I say every program that connects with the wiimote. I use the tree wiimotes at the same time without problems with the trick. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez-utils/+bug/284982 In fact I have a new acer aspire one that I installed from scratch, and... it doesn't work ... unless I use the hcitool trick again. Let's see: Three machines: One with ubuntu intrepid and ubuntu Hardy heron(works out of the box), in intrepid it doesn't work(multiple boot machine).Same USB dongle. Acer aspire 5610, it worked in Hardy,updated,in intrepid it doesn't work Acer aspire one with intrepid doesn't work. They all work well with the trick. I have tested two different USB dongles, they don't work without the trick, work with it. -- nintendo wiimote not working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/291051 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
