Just hoping to start a support thread for Wiimote under Linux. I personally haven't gotten it working, but I feel like my issue is something obvious.

[INFO] wiiuse clean up...
[INFO] Found 1 bluetooth device(s).
[INFO] Found wiimote (00:17:AB:39:42:B1) [id 1].
connect() output sock: Invalid argument


If anyone needs help getting to this point, I can try and offer some assistance, but I'm really hoping someone can get me past this issue.

My computer:
Intel Q6600
Nvidia 9800GTX+

Arch Linux running latest 2.6.30 kernel x64 architecture.
Latest Dolphin SVN 3540.

Wiimote works entirely in Cwiid and is able to connect through wminput.

That's weird, it connects for me using some 35xx revision. I was using Ubuntu 9.04 though.

Try going back a few revisions.

Also, do games start for you? I get a segfault Sad

No games are working for me. I figured one step at a time. Once I get the Wiimote working, then I'll work on the hard part which is figuring out why the damn thing crashes every time I try and load a game.

Edit: Got games working with the stable release. Unable to get Wiimote working. I'm starting to think its my hardware (even though wiiuse claims my device works) or something else.
