Hi
I'm trying to get the input from a ps3 controller into PD. In the end I'd like to have it connect wireless, but for now I just connected via usb and tapped the PlayStation button on the controller.
This shows up in lsusb: atte@skagen:~$ lsusb | grep Sony Bus 003 Device 013: ID 054c:0268 Sony Corp. Batoh Device / PlayStation 3 Controller
"cat /dev/input/js0" (as regular user) show the expected garbage when moving the controller around or touching buttons. I also get input in chuck opened with Hid.openJoystick(0), so I'm pretty sure the controller is recognized and sending stuff into the system.
In PD I trued using [hid] and sending [open XXXX( with just about everything I could think of.
So I'm hoping someone could give a hint or suggestion about what to try next, things I could have forgotten etc.
Regards

Ok, after sending the mail, I did some further poking, and it seems [open 10] opens the controller.

Using device 10 seems like a bad idea to me (I might be wrong), since I'd expect that device number to depend on what else is plugged in and in what order. Is there a better way?

The help patch says you can open by vendor and product id.
Enjoy,

Thanks. I already tried that, but forgot to prepend the 0x. Using [open 0x054c 0x0268( works just great!
Sorry about that :-)
