As explained in the tutorial there, the sixaxis emulator runs well with a Ubuntu Live CD. But the bad point of that method is that the installed packages & softwares are not persistent (everything runs from volatile memory, nothing is saved on disk).
I discovered it is really easy to setup a Ubuntu Live USB Persistent Flash Drive. This stuff makes the sixaxis emulator extremely transportable: just take your bluetooth dongle and your usb flash drive, plug them on any PC, boot from USB, and start the sixaxis emulator!
A quick & easy tutorial to setup a Ubuntu Live USB Persistent Flash Drive can be found there.
great job,respect 🙂
i have one question
is there latency difference between different ubuntu running (installed on HD, live from CD or live from usb flash drive)?
thnx
I guess there is no difference.
thnx 🙂
if i setup usb flash drive and usb dongle on my pc
does my pc need to be running linux?
i have vista so will this work?
please reply

Windows can't run Linux from the flash drive. You have to boot Linux (from the flash drive) instead of windows.
