Ubuntu - can't pair with my Wiimote

[YellowWii]

I realise that this is an Ubuntu query, but as it's related to using Dolphin I hope somebody can help.

I'm running Ubuntu 14.10

My Bluetooth dongle is a Sitecom CN-524

I THINK I've installed it correctly as when I load up Bluetooth Manager and do a search it sees my Wiimote just fine.

However, I can't pair the two - I select to pair without a passcode (or whatever the exact working is) but it then says that it can't pair.

Not sure where to go from here. Any ideas please?

Thanks

Use Dolphin not the bluetooth manager to pair your device. First clear out any settings you may have changed in bluetooth manager then forget about it. Start up dolphin click the controllers icon and make sure wiimote is set to real wiimote, and check the box that says continuous scanning and click ok. Now pressing buttons 1 and 2 on the wiimote should pair it.

That worked perfectly, thanks!
