can't get motionplus detected in linux

[axfelix]

Hi folks,

Most of the documentation I can find around not detecting a Wii MotionPlus accessory deals with third-party Wiimotes (which these aren't) and remotes that have "TR" at the end of their model name (which mine don't). I've been trying to boot up Wii Sports Resort in Dolphin under Linux (verison 4.0, Ubuntu) and I can't get past the "please connect a Wii MotionPlus to the Wii Remote" screen. The Wiimotes themselves work fine in other titles. I've tried with two different remotes and two different MotionPluses. Help would be appreciated!

I can't seem to get nunchuks working either (again, not third-party), so is it possible there's something wrong with the extension code in Linux?

Were you using Toshiba Bluetooth Stack?

Make sure bluez and any bluetooth related package are updated, it tends to interfere with Dolphin communication..

Yeah, I had to patch and recompile bluez myself to get balance board support working

It's as up to date as it can be (can't install 5.x in Ubuntu because of Pulse conflicts, but I have the newest version of 4.x from Saucy sources with the aforementioned balance board patch).
