Sorry, totally forgot to mention... this is ubuntu gutsy, I did look at updating to 8.04 but there is a bug at the moment with the updater that causes it to hang ;-( (https://bugs.launchpad.net/update-manager/+bug/186465)Everything calibrated just fine. But at the end of calibration, returning to the normal screen, it goes unresponsive before I can click on activate.
That was using the cwiid that I installed out of synaptic, but I couldn't compile the latest with that, even specifying the gutsy compat option it attempted to call a function that it claimed had the wrong number of parameters.Having updated cwiid I can compile and get to where I am, which is tantalizingly close to working...
no joy ;-( no matter what I try it gets as far as calibrating my wiimote. then dies.Should I be worried that it tries to connect to a second wiimote before callibration?I was wondering if something is expecting there to be 2 when there is actually only 1.but I'm guessing.
