Generic PS3 remote

Generic PS3 remote


There are many generic IR PS3 Remotes. I tried a couple of units from Chinese on-line shops and the keys stuck or were unreliable. Also some of the USB "Dongles" were very directional.

I settled on this particular unit as it appears in Windows device manager as a UID-Gampad and the key=presses test in the control panel

and is detected under Linux as ID 1130:0202 Tenx Technology, Inc. and cat /proc/bus/input/devices -> results in:
