Will Pandora fully support Dualshock 3 out of the box?

My current OS (debian) requires a bluez patch (to activate controller- though i think the more recent vanilla bluez 4.x supports this without a patch) and a kernel patch (to allow capture of accel/gyro).

The kernel version we are using is up to date enough to support it, and if they use a relatively new bluez package then you wont need to worry. It'll most likely be supported out of the box.

I'll be writing a HOWTO on this when I get my unit.

I assume it'll support bluetooth out-of-the-box, since it's in the specs. Check this thread for drivers.

Indeed, that file is originally from that website :) It pairs the controller with the PC, but does not do anything else.
