Can anyone with a dualshock 3 confirm its vendorID:productID

[ralferoo]

Just wondered if anyone out there who has a DualShock 3 and linux (not necessarily on the PS3) can confirm the USB productID.

The output from

Code: Select all

cat /proc/bus/input/devices

or

Code: Select all

cat /proc/bus/usb/devices

when the DualShock3 is plugged in should tell me everything I need to know... The vendor ID is probably 0x054c for Sony, but the product ID could be anything. You can probably also determine this information by plugging it into a Windows machine, but I don't know how!

Thanks!

this should be enough :D

Is that definitely a DualShock3? Those results look identical to the standard PS3 controller... Although, that does make like easier as I don't have to worry about the difference for now!

Cheers.

[weltall]

hum you asked the dual shock 3 oh sorry it's the standard controller i misslooked.
sorry to have made you lose time

Right I've plugged in my DS3 controller and got the info but youre probably not going to like the results :(

Looks like the same as the Sixaxis controller.... hope this still helps btw.

TBH, that makes life easier for me and probably most people, as existing code looks for deivce ID 054c:0268 in order to work around the bugs and these will work therefore work unchanged on the DS3!

I'd imagine the packets used to control rumble are ignored by the original controller. Also, there are several bytes of data sent by the controllers that I don't know what they're for; possibly there's a bit in there that signfies the device supports force feedback.

My main concern is that as europeans aren't allowed to buy DS3 yet, I had no way of knowing whether my code was still working with them or not. If the device ID is the same, then that's fine. I'll eventually buy a DS3 when they're available here and figure out how to get them rumbling!

If you want one now and don't mind paying a bit extra, you can probably get one through Ooh!JAPAN.

Shame... I bought a suitcase full of them back with me when I was out in Japan - If I'd have known... :(

If there's anything else I can do to help (except flying back to Japan), just give me a prod.

Note that play-asia don't ship these to Europe, though...

yesasia.com do however and it's pretty cheap.
