hi all,
this is my first post here, so please give me feedback, if you need more information. so here's my issue:
i'm trying to connect my wii motionplus with the wiimote object. after pressing 1 and 2 and sending the message "connect B8:AE:6E:55:35:2B" (this is the mac-adress, which i found out via hcitool scan), i get the following on my pd window:
wiimote 3 is successfully connected wiimote: Report send error (read) wiimote: Read error (%scal) Unable to retrieve accelerometer calibration wiimote: Send report error (report mode) wiimote: could not set report mode. comm error wiimote: Mutex destroy error (rpt) disconnect successfull, resetting values mesg 8 unknown
thank you for helping richard
Hi,
This is likely because you are using a newer version of the wiimote that has motionplus embedded and the supporting libcwiid library wiimote object relies on does not support that version. For the time being your only choice is to use older version of the wiimote. HTH
Best,

afaik, wiimote support on linux has changed completely, is now supported by the kernel directly, most likely exposing the device via HID¹. this basically made libcwiid obsolete (the reason why it is not developed any more), which in turn obsoletes [wiimote].

Interesting. Do you, or anyone else, know how complete is the HID support of the Wiimote (e.g. support for newer wiimotes and/or passthrough mode)?
