YEAH!
This one took me a minute. Aparently someone figured it out, but the solution is not mainstream.
Hold sync.
plugin.
Set mode 1.
wait for the driver dialog to finish and disappear
unplug.
switch to mode 4 and repeat.
modes 1+2 are for mouse+keybd override(uinput on linux)
modes 3+4 are for wii-mote useage(should pop a RVL-CNT device when sync with the dolphinBar)
This works beautifully on windows.
On Linux not so much.
Oh, dont get me wrong the debug mode of the mayflower is properly detected, and when not pressing sync, you get 4 hid devices, but the RVL-CNT-XX device never shows up.Dolphin complains that no bluetooth devices were detected. Nothing shows up with the bluetooth manager with just the bar connected(as its supposed to).
Im guessing its a driver load fault some have mentioned briefly, wherein hid drivers are getting loaded and not the wiimote ones.But I cannot for the life of me force the wiimote drivers under fedora 22.
No, you dont need another bluetooth dongle.If you can get mode 1+2 working the dongle part is obviously not needed, and the bluetooth part works.
But with a bluetooth device I can sync with the wiimote(and do nothing else) so it seems a wiimote driver controller issue.
..And for the record you can get catalyzed ok, but to compile the wiimote driver sources, yumex will pull in a newer X that will otherwise break that setup.What you need is the rpmbone version sources of whatever comes with fedora 22 stock xorg. (I have Xorg and the kernel frozen but yumex ignores that)
So it mostly works for Linux. We need to figure out how to force fudge the rest of the driver.I have an xpad configured for the gamecube mode.(yes, its a hack)
