Bluetooth Linux Stack Gets Improvements for Bluetooth LE Joypads, Other Devices

GNOME/Red Hat developer Bastien Nocera reports on the latest Bluetooth improvements that he and his team managed to implement for GNU/Linux distributions lately.

First off, for the ShanWan PS3 joypad (a PlayStation 3 controller clone), they managed to disable the rumble motor that currently starts immediately after you plug the controller into the USB port of your Linux computer, as well as to hard-code the HID service that the joypad was supposed to offer but it didn't because it's not Bluetooth compliant.

"The SHANWAN PS3 clone joypad will start its rumble motors as soon as it is plugged in via USB. As the additional USB interrupt does nothing on the original PS3 Sixaxis joypads, and makes a number of other clone joypads actually start sending data, disable that call for the SHANWAN so the rumble motors aren't started on plug," reads the read more)
