Re: PS4 controller with Bluetooth: Only the touch pad sends events?

[Manuel Reimer <Manuel.Spam@nurfuerspam.de>]

Hello,

just a short follow up.

I've tested the controller directly on the PS3 console (don't own a PS4 
yet) and it works well there, which confirms that the controller is OK.

Then I searched around a bit and found:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107081

Did this patch ever land here on the mailing list?

If not, I'll take over, have a look at reformatting the patch, test it 
with my PC and my PS4 controller and then send it to the list.

Thanks in advance

Manuel
