PI 3 + PS3 Bluetooth controller freeze fix. UPDATED
-
@smoothmalik if you read the first post, you only need one step and it is to update and upgrade. It works for me so I cannot see why it wont work for others. I had already installed the package raspberrypi-sys-mods so check if you have that installed also.
-
@Rascas I started with the first post and nothing worked so I kept going down the thread to other suggestions which lead to where i am now lol fucked...im prolly just gonna do another clean install and try this for like the 3rd time...
-
@smoothmalik Besides the PS3 gamepad install, it is just 2 more commands, pretty easy ;)
-
Attempting to downgrade and I get the following:
dpkg-deb: error: 'pi-bluetooth_0.1.0_armhf.deb' is not a debian format archive
What am I suppose to do with that...
-
You didn't download it correctly I guess. But you don't need to downgrade - install raspberrypi-sys-mods
-
I did double check the download but I'll try install aspberrypi-sys-mods and see what happens. What should happen?
EDIT: you meant install raspberrypi-sys-mods correct, with the 'r' in front?
-
I confirmed my download and re-downloaded it a couple times, that didn't work. I took the deb off of another card that I had and it downgraded just fine.
I don't know what sys-mods is so I'll learn about it before trying it.
-
I did - the R got lost somewhere :-)
sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-sys-modsanswer Y if it asks about overwriting a file -
@Rascas I'm goin to do a fresh install. after emulationstation loads what steps do I absolutely need to do and in what order?
-
@smoothmalik You do only the 2 commands in the first post, after the "EDIT". Than install the PS3 commands, check the wiki if you dont know how. That is only it.
-
@Rascas
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-sys-modsworked like a charm!!! THANKS
-
You can close this issue now...
I have updated the Bluetooth page on the wiki: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Setting-up-a-Bluetooth-controller
-
After applying all the aforementioned updates and even some recipes combining a mix of them, I still get freezes on psx games as soon as i disconnect the usb cable and go all the way wireless. The rest of the setup seem to work fine. :/
