That's the problem, then - CWiid/doc/wminput isn't a valid config file, it's just a list of button and axis identifiers, as described in the in Cwiid/wminput/README .
I can see how that'd be confusing, though, given that CWiid/doc/wminput.conf was a configuration in previous versions - I'll change the filename or something.

I guess I should have bothered to glance at the file contents for more than a split-second.

So you're no longer including an example/template configuration file? Even though wminput looks for a default file that isn't there and isn't provided for other than a few lines in the readme that say "make this"?

Well, that's up to you...

In my opinion, you should AT LEAST provide a template file that that user can edit along with a friendly error message directing the user in what to do when they try to run wminput without the default file in place.

Well, if you actually install CWiid as intended, default does exist
I'll do something more useful with doc/wminput

First, thanks for spending so much time in this project.

Second, a note to all Fedora users: All distributions(edit: as far as core 6) come with an ancient flex version (2.5.4) that doesnt work with CWiid. But the not yet released core 7 will have the newest version, it can be downloaded and installed with yum: 2.5.33 -4.fc7. It took a while before i figured out that i needed a newer version. Adding version nr to the requirement list could be a future feature.

Last: Whe I finally got it to compile i cannot get it to connect to my wiimote. It does find it but both the gui and the demo gives me this error msg to stdout: "Error establishing control channel connection" Ive tried to change some bluetooth settings with no luck. What are the possible causes for this?

[abstrakraft]

Yeah, someone informed me of the flex issue a couple days ago - I didn't realize I was using new features. The next configure script will check for it. Anybody know the oldest flex version that implements yy{pop,push}_buffer_state?

For some reason, some machines have trouble searching for wiimotes - try specifying the wiimote's address on the command-line or in the environment variable WIIMOTE_BDADDR.
