Help with the command line interface

I've been trying to use GIMX bluetooth from the command line in puppy linux.
I have been following the wiki tutorial, however you did not say how to change the baddr of the bluetooth device on the tutorial.
That should be the only thing I need to get it working.
I think I have everything else right, however a quick look-over by anybody who understand it better would be welcome.

Here's what I have:

sh-4.1# emu F0:F0:02:E6:XX:XX
default bt device number 0 is used
default sixaxis number 0 is used
connecting with hci0 = 00:24:2C:DC:XX:XX to F0:F0:02:E6:XX:XX psm 17
can't connect to control psm
emu: can't connect to control psm: Connection refused

The controller baddr is 00:23:06:BA:XX:XX, so I am pretty sure that the issue is the baddr not being set.

Note: the XX:XX in all bluetooth address is for safety, although I'm not sure it matters if I put the whole address online or not.


Edit: I found the solution in the FAQ, when it says how to change it back. However, please update the wiki so it includes that.
Actually, I edit it myself, however I would recommend that you check it.

The solution was: sudo bdaddr -i hciX YY:YY:YY:YY:YY:YY

Where hciX is put your hci number. (Probably 0, so hci0)
However if sudo can't be found (Command can't be found) just bdaddr -i hciX YY:YY:YY:YY:YY:YY

New Issue:


sh-4.1# emuclient --config ~/.emuclient/config/bf3.xml
emuclient: error while loading shared libraries: libtinfo.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Edit: Fixed. Forgot to space between dir and file name.
