Hey everyone,


I've been trying to find a way to get the DolphinBar (in mode 4) working with Dolphin in Linux. Since there isn't any official support for it, is there any method/workaround to get Mode 4 working in Dolphin?

Out of curiosity, what is the progress on the front of official support for Mode 4 in Dolphin? If there is a workaround, could someone kindly share the instructions here? Cheers! Smile

Thanks for the reply. I'm hoping that official support is actively in the works....but i'll take a look at the linked build in the mean time. Cheers! Smile

AFAIK nobody is working on it because Linux BT drivers already works very well with the problematic -TR Wiimotes...

As far I as I understand, the issue is getting Linux and the inbuilt bluetooth device in the DolphinBar to play nice together. Additionally, it'd be good to implement as the windows and Mac versions of Dolphin work with the DolphinBar....so Linux is the last stop. Smile

No, this is quite easy. The point is that accessing the DolphinBar and accessing the wiimote over bluetooth is the same for dolphin on windows. On linux, we either talk bluetooth, or we have to talk USB to the dolphin bar. But right now, dophin does not support to talk to two librarys at the same time. Sadly, nobody is working on it :/

If someone of you wants to help, this class needs to be virtualized.

Ahh....thanks for the clarification. Smile I understand now.

I can't code/program, thus I can't help that way. However, i'm willing and able to test.....for whatever it's worth.
