I can confirm that this is fixed in Precise. Try: grep wiimote $(which bluetoothd) if it gives back: Binary file /usr/sbin/bluetoothd matches Bluez has wiimote support.
(see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/XWiimote#BlueZ_does_not_include_the_wiimote_plugin ) Now the problem is that not all Nintendo Wii Remote are supported, I created a new bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/929016 ** Changed in: bluez (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/883912 Title: Please compile bluez with Wiimote support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/883912/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
