Of course, all the above is because QTSixA is no longer supported. To prevent sixad from being started at the boot, you have to execute: sudo systemctl disable sixadĪnd, when you're going to use it, execute: sudo sixad -s sixad and sixpairĮdit: Apparently and according to my tests, sixad automatically starts at the boot, but doesn't work at all when that happens, having to stop it an re-start it to make it to work. Because of that, you need to use the command line-based applications, i.e. Note: as far as I can tell, the GUI based application is no longer useful, at least to detect and connect controllers through Bluetooth. Sudo apt-key adv -keyserver -recv-keys 736E4F0B To do so, execute the following: sudo add-apt-repository "deb vivid main" On Ubuntu 15.10/16.04 and Linux Mint 18, you can still use the QtSixA PPA, but specifying "vivid" as the Ubuntu version (15.04), since that was the last officially supported version.

There is nothing to install anymore on recent versions of Ubuntu, as Dualshock 3 (and 4 I believe) is natively supported by the Kernel, in both USB and Bluetooth. You can test the functionality of your controller through Jstest-gtk (install: sudo apt-get install jstest-gtk) If you press the Playstation button, the computer will receive its input and simulate it as an Xbox 360 controller, which should work the same as the playstation controller.start xboxdrv with sudo xboxdrv -detach-kernel-driver.
Scp server ps3 block software#
install xboxdrv from the Ubuntu Software Center or with sudo apt-get install xboxdrv.If it does not work automatically, this link might answer your question.
I use another similar PnP controller, and it works without difficulty. It might be that the controller already works if you do this (You can test this with jstest-gtk as listed below).
Scp server ps3 block how to#
I don't know how to connect the controller via bluetooth to your computer (if you even have a bluetooth receiver), so this answer focusses on usb connection. This is supplied with a PS3 device (it is the primary way to charge the controller). You are able to connect the controller to the pc via usb cable.
