User Reviews

  • As packaged, it is unbuildable on ubuntu 12.04 (requires use of aclocal from autotools) and it also does not install correctly (ld needs help finding installed library in /usr/local/lib). And yet, my test program (example 1 from the libwiimote project page) still produces "wiimote_connect(): devba: No such device" which the old libwiimote library was giving me.

  • I like it among other things for its simple usage. I prefer it over the original libwiimote as it has bug fixes and patches applied that were was not applied on the original project.
