Failure to install Bluetooth in new Jessie OS

Thanks piborg,
I followed your script but I'm still having problems I'm afraid. I'm not sure Bluetooth is working, my iPhone can't detect anything nearby. Is there any way to check from the RPi?
There seem to be a couple of errors in your script which threw me for a while as I got a 404 error when downloading from sourceforge. The files should be "QtSixA" and not "qtsixa". Also, the patch didn't work with your txt file, "Patch is full of garbage" or a similar error message. I used a patch from "https://bugs.launchpad.net/qtsixa/+bug/1036744/+attachment/3260906/+file..." which I found on a RetroPie site, it seems to have worked.
I'm not sure what is wrong with my connection, it seems to pair correctly with the USB cable plugged in but otherwise there is no response when the PS button is pressed, all the leds flashing together rather than cycling through the channels as it does when I revert back to my Wheezy setup, which is still working correctly.
Perhaps when your PS3 controllers return from battle you could check things out?
You'll notice I use "seem" a lot in the above, that should give you a clue that I'm a little out of my depth!

Thanks again, piborg. It will be a few days before I can try it but I have every faith!
Your support for your brilliant products is exemplary.

Installing Sixad in "Jessie"

In a freshly installed version of "Jessie" (updated and upgraded) install the following packages:

sudo apt-get -y install bluetooth
sudo apt-get -y install libusb-dev
sudo apt-get -y install joystick
(python-pygame already installed in Jessie)
sudo apt-get -y install bluez-hcidump
sudo apt-get -y install checkinstall
sudo apt-get -y install libbbluetooth-dev
sudo apt-get -y install pyqt4-dev-tools
sudo apt-get -y install libjack0
sudo apt-get -y install libjack-dev

# It's possible that some of these installs are not necessary but I don't have enough knowledge to investigate this. This combination that works on my setup.

# Get sixpair from web site
wget http://www.pabr.org/sixlinux/sixpair.c
gcc -o sixpair sixpair.c -lusb

# get QtSixA from web site
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtsixa/files/QtSixA%201.5.1/QtSixA-1.5.1...
tar xfvz QtSixA-1.5.1-src.tar.gz

At this point remove or rename the file "shared.h" from /home/pi/QtSixA-1.5.1/sixad

# From GitHub get an updated copy of "shared.h"
https://github.com/falkTX/qtsixa/tree/master/sixad

I did this in Windows cutting and pasting from the RAW file in GitHub into Notepad and converting it to Linux line endings in "PyPe", there's probably a better way but this worked.

Copy downloaded "shared.h" into /home/pi/QtSixA-1.5.1/sixad

# (Thanks to robl at PiBorg-Home-Forums-Raspberry Pi General Discussions-make failure for QtSixA for this information).

cd QtSixA-1.5.1/sixad

make

sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/sixad/profiles
sudo checkinstall

# At this point the file /etc/default/sixad needs modifying to prevent a "bad buffer" error when trying to connect with sixad.

sudo nano /etc/default/sixad - change LEGACY=0 to LEGACY=2

Proceed as described in the rest of the PiBorg Setup instructions for "Wheezy", i.e. pair with sixpair and then run sixad and press the PS button. Test with jstest /dev/input/js0 and it should work.

This is not perfect and I would welcome any advice as to how to improve things:

Firstly the pairing doesn't survive a reboot so the controller needs re-pairing with a usb lead and sixpair each time.

Secondly the controller only works in Legacy mode, i.e. no vibration, no motion sensing, no axis output from buttons other than the joysticks. However, this is exactly how my previous "Wheezy" installation worked.

I will also post this in the RPi forum.
