What about your power adapter? (if you’re an arm board) Is it enough?

Hi Kivutar, It’s an old Toshiba 500-108, i already tryed the generic nightly from may 5 2016 x86_64 with the same result

@jcam79 I think your DS3 has still the MAC address of your PS3 configured. It needs the MAC address of your bluetooth dongle of your Toshiba. Try with the Sixaxis pair tool.

jayp76 i am almost sure that this is not the case here, i don’t own a PS3, i did reset the remote, he connects but doesn’t pair,

i tested all my 4 P3 Pad’s in a android tablet and they work perfect through bluetooth.

i will have to try with another bluetooth dongle (despite this one is in the list of compatible)

I wrote this because i had the same behaviour with my 8bitdo Gamepad. After i reseted the gamepad it could pair and connect.

Do an ssh connection to lakka and type dmesg, look at the log messages when trying to pair.
