AzelphurDoes anyone know if PS3 controllers work over bluetooth OOTB in Ubuntu 14.10?10:55
sbutcherheh11:00
sbutcherwas just googling similar thing about android11:00
sbutcherhave some nostalgic urge to play tomb raider11:00
sbutcheroh, they seem to have released it on ios, not android :(11:02
Azelphursbutcher: I know how to do sixaxis on android11:02
Azelphurit's easy, I've done it :)11:02
TwistedLucidityOn that topic - any decent USB gamepads for GNU/Linux? Or if the PS3 thing works...that could be a goer (if it works on a RasPi)11:02
Azelphurwell if anyone has a ps3 controller (Original Sony, not a fake/gasia one) , I can talk you through testing if it works in like 2 seconds11:03
shaunoI use a logitech f710 with my pi.  no complaints at all.11:04
Azelphursbutcher: do you have a PS3 controller + bluetooth on a *buntu 14.10 machine?11:05
sbutcherno Azelphur only ps2 controller and usb11:06
Azelphuraww :(11:06
AzelphurI have the fake ones but they talk a different protocol than the official ones strangely11:07
sbutchermust be a few ps3 users in here11:09
Azelphuryea, I imagine someone will pipe up in a sec :)11:10
popeydunno anyone with a ps3 to test it11:10
popeyi used a ps3 tv remote with my ubuntu machine for a while11:10
popeybut it didn't power down nicely, so batteries drained quickly11:10
Azelphurah11:12
AzelphurI've got a harmony remote now which is hooked up with Kodi :)11:12
shaunoI'm finding the opposite with my logitech one .. the batteries have lasted so long I'm starting to suspect witchcraft11:12
Azelphurmeanwhile with my crappy gasia knockoff controllers, they all have dodgy charging circuitry11:13
AzelphurI've damaged all of them and broke one11:13
AzelphurIf you plug them in on anything that isn't USB Data they break :)11:13
sbutcher:(11:14
sbutcherbah my book didn't arrive in time for christmas11:15
sbutcherterrania is free on app store11:19
popeyyeah, just grabbed that11:27
popeyand plex11:27
popeyalso, tune in pro11:27
knightwisemorning peeps11:29
sbutchergot sonic and some others too11:30
sbutchermy dishawasher somehow fixed itself after 2 months of not working properly \o/11:31
knightwisesbutcher: regenerating appliances ...11:31
knightwiseCool !11:32
sbutchermy son found out he has to wear glasses :( i think he's destined to be a geek :S11:34
TwistedLucidityGot no space on my phone for any more apps. :-(11:35
TwistedLucidityKeep trying to move things off internal storage to phone, but doesn't seem to free up any space11:35
sbutcherits annoying that amazon app store immediately starts downloading the app11:35
sbutcheri want to "buy" it but only to claim, and not download ASAP11:35
TwistedLucidityIt's annoying that I can't delete Facebook and other tripe11:36
sbutcherwhich phone TwistedLucidity ?11:36
TwistedLucidityHTC Desire X aka HTC Turd11:36
knightwiseBeen working to get my Chromebook to play nice with my workflows this week. Interesting experiment11:36
TwistedLucidityI could probably root it, but seeing as there are not alternative ROMs other than UI fluff there's not much point.11:37
knightwisethat was the reason I switched to the Oneplus One.11:37
sbutcherthere is a way...11:37
knightwiseDidn't want my next phoone to be full of samsung cruft11:38
sbutcherbut it slowed my htc desire intolerably11:38
sbutcherits called s2e and you can partition your sd card so that the phone thinks it is actually internal storage11:38
TwistedLuciditysbutcher: The phone is already dog-slow11:38
TwistedLucidityIt's just a piece of junk, last time I buy HTC11:39
TwistedLucidityknightwise: What's the Oneplus One like? Screen/battery life.11:39
sbutcherit was good in its day11:41
sbutcherthe htc desire lasted 5 yrs for me11:41
sbutcheruntil the size of apps etc just ballooned inandroid11:42
sbutcherno fault of the phone. ecellent hardware and phoen design11:42
TwistedLuciditysbutcher: It's not a Desire, it's a "Desire X". I think the "X" stands for "eXtremely bad"11:42
sbutcheroh, is it a later rerelease?11:42
TwistedLucidityThe standard Desires appear to be much, much better phones11:42
TwistedLuciditysbutcher: Bought it Feb 2013.11:43
sbutcheri seem to remember some budget rehash 2 yrs later11:43
sbutchercyanogen would be good for it if you haven't11:43
sbutcherremoves all sorts of cruft11:43
TwistedLucidityAnd yeah, it's budget. But budget should not equal garbage.11:43
sbutcherremoving animations etc helps too11:43
TwistedLuciditysbutcher: Can't install cyanogen11:43
ali12341cyanogen doesn't run well on old phones11:43
sbutcherlike the wildfire, a terrible phone11:43
ali12341unless you use an old build11:43
sbutcheryep ali12341 i had to use old build, there were none newer11:44
sbutcherwhy can't u install it?11:45
TwistedLuciditysbutcher: There was no build last time I checked, just some Cyanogen 10 unofficial alpha thing11:45
sbutcherlooks like 10.1 is out there11:48
sbutchereverything is unofficial really11:48
sbutcherhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=233738911:48
ali12341i have 10.1 on samsung galaxy S and it crashes all the time because it doesn't have enough memory11:49
ali12341desire x is probably a better phone though11:50
sbutcheroh, looks like loads doesn't work on that build11:50
sbutcheras far as i can tell, because forums suck for this stuf11:50
TwistedLucidityali12341: I doubt it severely11:52
TwistedLucidityI have about 0.7GB RAM11:52
TwistedLucidityFirefox continually crashes the keyboard and other apps just trying to load a basic page11:53
ali12341galaxy S has has 384MB11:55
ali12341firefox is just bloated and slow, it crashes anything11:56
TwistedLucidityali12341: 384? >ouch<11:56
sbutcherdolphin is ok11:56
sbutcheralthough probably sends your data to china11:57
sbutcheras opposed to the US, for chrome11:57
TwistedLuciditysbutcher: Indeed.11:59
sbutcherugh, credit card bill is £2500 this month12:02
sbutcherand next month is the train season ticket :(12:02
