I don't think it would work the other way around. To my knowledge, the PS3 uses a proprietary technology of some kind for it's controllers. Not Bluetooth. (though I could be wrong) |
It's Bluetooth. http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/About/TechnicalSpecifications |

Nice. I gotta say, as much as Sony keeps screwing the pooch recently, they are being real nice to us homebrew types. OtherOS is awesome. And submitting drivers to the kernel? That's just plain bitchen.
Nintendo, while a company close to my heart, is not quite so nice. |

| Yea, I was trying to do just this, but I have had trouble finding the right RPM package for BlueZ and evdev (I'm also a linux n00b) on Fedora Core 5. Anyone have any luck getting these packages installed? |

Stranger things have happened. I curious as to what could be done with it...  But I'm sure someone out there will make it happen.

Wiimote controlled Windows XP, running from a qemu VM from within Linux, on a PS3... What a slut of a machine!
That would be a Microsoft, Nintendo, Linux, and Sony love train! |
