GIMX can run on many Linux targets, and the [[RPi|Raspberry Pi] is one of them!
Contents
Tested setup
* Raspberry Pi: model B, 256MB * Distro: Raspbian wheezy * Self-powered USB hub: Belkin 7 ports F4U017 (self-powered = with an external power supply) * Keyboard: n25te plugged on the USB hub * Mouse: Logitech G500 plugged on the USB hub * Bluetooth dongle: Pluscom BT20 (CSR Bluecore4-rom) plugged on the USB hub * PS3: FAT - FW 4.41
Fix for USB issues
A firmware update is required to fix USB issues (missing mouse & keyboard events - source).
Instructions:
sudo apt-get install git-core sudo wget http://goo.gl/1BOfJ -O /usr/bin/rpi-update && sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/rpi-update sudo BRANCH=fiq_split rpi-update
Tested Rpi firmware
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ uname -a Linux raspberrypi 3.8.12+ #438 PREEMPT Wed May 8 22:31:10 BST 2013 armv6l GNU/Linux pi@raspberrypi ~ $ /opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd version May 5 2013 13:06:56 Copyright (c) 2012 Broadcom version 388665 (release)
GIMX installation
wget http://gimx.fr/download/gimx-raspbian.html sudo dpkg -i sixemu_1.01-1_armhf.deb
Note: as of this writting, GIMX version is 1.01.
Required bluetooth tools
sudo apt-get install bluez
Run GIMX
A good idea is to run GIMX directly from a terminal, without any desktop.
This can be done over the network:
ssh pi@<ip address> emu <PS3 bdaddr>
ssh pi@<ip address> emuclient -c <config file>
The dongle address has to be changed before running the above commands.
Ideally, GIMX should be launched without using the Ethernet port (because it is connected on the USB bus).
