Installing Libusb For Pcsx2 Emulator
I connected it to the pc and pcsx2 recognised it But when I use the buttons to configure the controls in lilypad it doesn't work. Any solution? 2010-4-9 How to make Dualshock 3 work in pcsx2. Note that rumble also will probably not work, unless you go the libusb route. Alcoholic Newbie.
I am trying to get a PS3 Sixaxis controller to work with Ubuntu 12.04. The ubuntu wiki page for sixaxis says to install QtSixA, which I did. The issue now is actually using the controller. I installed 'SuperTux 2' to test it out. Normally, SuperTux says there is no joystick. When I plug in the PS3 Controller, and press scan, it then displays all of the controls and their assigned buttons. I can then click on a action and it will prompt me to press the button I want to assign. The issue here that pressing buttons on the controller doesn't do anything. I can't assign any of actions to a button on the controller.
The same goes for PCSX. I can configure the controller, and select the Sony Playstation(R)3 Controller from the drop down, but when I try to assign a button, pressing buttons on the PS3 controller doesn't do anything.
On the web, I see tons of guides on how to connect with Bluetooth, but my computer doesn't have a bluetooth dongle, so I just want to connect via USB.
In addition, QtSixA can see the controller too. I can 'configure default profile', which I have tried, but SuperTux 2 nor PCSX react any differently...
UPDATE: Following the Ubuntu Community Guide for Sixaxis guide, I tried sudo apt-get install libusb-dev libusb-0.1-4 xserver-xorg-input-joystick, and then compiled sixpair. Running sudo ./sixpair complains about enabling bluetooth, then SuperTux 2 can't find the controller anymore when I click scan.
After reading this article, I found out I have to press the PS button to get it working... Well, that worked fine for using the controller as a POINTER device. I can now make my mouse on screen dance using the analog sticks. I am still unsure of how to get it working with SuperTux 2 and PCSX though...
Pcsx2 Ps3 Controller
When I didn't have xserver-xorg-input-joystick installed, pressing the PS button caused it connect to the PS3 in the other room as controller 2. I am very confused about what is going on right now...

I have read something about it and I think it would be better to connect PS3 controller using bluetooth directly. Take a look of this.
I have read your limitations, and I still think that you need to use bluetooth. you could Buy a Bluetooth USB dongle, they are cheap (dealextreme.com/p/…).
I'm not sure if this will help, but when I set up my PS2 controller to play emulators I used jstest-gtk.
It took a little bit of time to get it set up between jstest-gtk and the emulator (I use ZSNES). After getting the controller to read properly through jstest-gtk I had to go into my emulator and assign all the buttons. (I had thought it would auto-detect the controller but it didn't.) It works great; I've not had any problems with it.
Like I said, I don't know if it will work for a PS3 controller though, but it might be worth the try.
I installed joy2key which can be installed directly from the repositories of debian, once installed before you run the program/emulator you run joy2key --dev /dev/input/[device number] --terminal, you need to configure the analog joysticks, (there is a way to avoid this later but I haven't look how to write the configuration file), then you are good to go, I use it with MAME and others, I still can't make it work with some snes emulators, hope this work for any who need to use it with the USB port.
You need to run this command in terminal:
have a look at this.
