Recently, after having my sixaxis time out I am not able to reconnect it by pressing the PS button. Earlier (few months back) this was possible..
When doing hciconfig I get bluetooth “UP RUNNING” but no pscan. After a reboot “UP RUNNING PSCAN” and my sixaxis will pair no problem.
After “breaking” I can manually do hciconfig hci0 pscan via ssh and the controller will pair again. But this is obviously more involved than I would like.. I prefer to keep the pi on 24/7 so turning off after every game isnt viable.. Anyone know how to make this work?
Same probem on my setup. After PS3 controller has been connected first time after boot – PSCAN is suddenly disabled.
Once I run “hciconfig hci0 pscan” – it starts to work again (PS3 controller is able to reconnect after being disconnected) until next reboot.I made a hack to workaround this problem by adding the same command to the end of sixad-sixaxis.cpp main function
system(“hciconfig hci0 pscan”);But would be good to find the good solution.
Same here I wanted to use ps3 controller s because I hate the big bulky Xbox receiver
I beleve it worked well with retropie 2.5 beta img. But I didn’t use 2.5 very long
I noticed this behavior with recent builds of blueZ. you probably should think about removing qtsixa and use native support of ps3 controller in recent blueZ (i don’t have a tutorial for raspbian, but this tutorial for gentoo probably can help you)
I had issues with Bluetooth too. Try adding these 2 lines before the line “exit 0″ to the file etc/rc.local
hciconfig hci0 up
hciconfig hci0 piscanFixed it for me!
I was having the same issue, and similar to killer101, I did the following:
sudo nano /etc/rc.local
add the following 2 lines right before the “exit 0” line:
hciconfig device up hciconfig enable pscan
This is a slightly better method in case your device isn’t hci0.
